Thanks for the info about the fans Tim, Zoran, and Taiidan. I haven't tried to use fancontrol yet, so I'm confident that will be the solution to my fan issue.

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.

These are server boards and coreboot *purposefully sets the fans to full speed until the OS boots* and can take over fan control duties via 'fancontrol' [1] or a similar application. Note that the 'w83795' kernel module is required for this to work. 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
