Bug description:
  [Impact]
  No on-screen keyboard in gdm and can't enter password if there is no keyboard 
is connected.

  [Fix]
  Added those tablets to dmi_vgbs_allow_list() to read tablet mode while 
probing fixes the issue.
  Currently, we use the product SKU in the DMI quirk. I’ll submit a patch 
upstream with the real product name once the machines reach the market.

  [Test]
  Boot up the affected tablets to gdm without touching any physical keys, the 
on-screen keyboard should pop up.

  [Where problems could occur]
  Current BIOS is reliablely to report the tablet mode during probing intel hid 
driver, but when it fails, it may report the wrong state and show the on-screen 
keyboard when keyboard is connected.
