What am I missing here? Any clues?
Have you checked the hint at the very beginning of the gist "apparmor/security configuration changes may be needed". I dimly remember that I had to do this when migrating from Debian 10 to Debian 11?
There is even a comment in the gist about it linking to <https://egirland.blogspot.com/2018/12/get-rid-of-that-fng-permission-denied_7.html>Also, did you try the `sudo strings /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/MSDM` suggested in the comments already?
NB: IIRC, back when I migrated all my Windows VMs from VirtualBox to KVM, I had to re-activate them all...
