This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-oem-6.11/6.11.0-1011.11 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-oem-6.11' to 'verification-done- noble-linux-oem-6.11'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-oem-6.11' to 'verification-failed- noble-linux-oem-6.11'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

On those platforms, the BIOS should take full control over the relevant functions, without the interference from the PMF driver. To achieve this, add quirks that make the PMF driver fail to probe on those platforms. [ Test Plan ] 1. Install the kernel on one of those platforms. 2. Boot into the kernel. 3. Check dmesg. It should show "Platform prefers BIOS over PMF module. Finish PMF driver probe early." [ Where problems could occur ] If the quirk matches the wrong platform, PMF driver will not function. [ Other Information ] Simply making the driver fail to probe would suffice. This is because BIOS detects the presence of the PMF driver by detecting regular heartbeat signal sent from the driver. If BIOS detects no such heartbeats, it'll consider the PMF driver missing, and will automatically take over the relevant functions.
