Correct me if I am wrong, but how I understood the topic/problem, the fans continue to blow full speed indefinitely even after OS boots, don't they?
Naah as tim said you just have to run fancontrol or use Raptor's OpenBMC port for the KGPE-D16/KCMA-D8 boards.
Additionally I added this info to the wiki many months ago, as I too was bothered by the fan speed when I first installed coreboot years ago and assumed something was broken to which tim explained it for me too :D

I got it. *Raptor's OpenBMC port for the KGPE-D16/KCMA-D8 boards* module should/must be included in Debian distro as driver addendum. In this case it is not.
Thank you, Zotran
