[j-nsp] MX80-48T Fan Speed Variation

  I've got 5 of them doing the same thing...not even a warm room.
Used the same config snippet to debloat logs.  All SFP-based, but only
have 2 x XFP and a single SFP populated currently.  Yanked the fan
tray to test traps, and the thing shut down completely in less than
15mins.
