Post a console log of your issue below:

input:
echo 126 > /sys/class/gpio/export

output:
echo: I/O error

input:
echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio126/direction

For anyone interested, here is my revised setup to run the pwm fan from kksb on the vim4 by khadas:

/boot/dtb/amlogic/kvim4.dtb.overlay.env

fdt_overlays=pwm_f

/usr/local/bin/fan.sh

#!/bin/bash

TEMP_TRESHOLD=75000 # 75 celsius
LOOP_TIME=1 # 1 sec

PWM_EXPORT='/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip4/export'
PWM_PERIOD='/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip4/pwm1/period'
PWM_DUTY_CYCLE='/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip4/pwm1/duty_cycle'
PWM_ENABLE='/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip4/pwm1/enable'
CPU_TEMP='/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp'

if [ -f $PWM_EXPORT ] ; then
  [ -f $PWM_ENABLE ] || echo 1 > $PWM_EXPORT

  echo 40000 > $PWM_PERIOD     # 40 us -> 25 kHz
  echo 40000 > $PWM_DUTY_CYCLE # max speed

  while true ; do
    TEMP=$(<$CPU_TEMP) # read cpu temp

    if [ $TEMP -lt $TEMP_TRESHOLD ] ; then
      echo 0 > $PWM_ENABLE
    else
      echo 1 > $PWM_ENABLE
    fi

    sleep $LOOP_TIME
  done
fi
