** Description changed:

+ [SRU Justification]
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ 
+ Failed to load i915 GSC (Graphics Security Controller) firmware on Intel ARL 
platforms:
+ ```
+ kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] ERROR GT1: Request submission for GSC load 
failed -ETIME
+ kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] ERROR GT1: Failed to load GSC firmware 
i915/mtl_gsc_1.bin -ETIME
+ ```
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ 
+ Upstream commit e0ee2f91c ("i915: Update MTL/ARL GSC to
+ v102.1.15.1926").
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ 1. Install linux-firmware from -proposed pocket,
+ 
+ 2. Reboot and check dmesg. The GSC firmware should be loaded successfully:
+ ```
+ i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] GT1: Loaded GSC firmware i915/mtl_gsc_1.bin (cv1.0, 
r102.1.15.1926, svn 1)
+ ```
+ 
+ [Where problems could occur]
+ 
+ The GSC firmware is an opaque binary for us, and Intel ARL platforms equip 
same graphic core with MeteorLake. This update will also affect MTL and other 
few platforms.
+  
+ [Other Info]
+ 
+ linux-firmware/plucky has the fix since version
+ 20241118.git6e4e94b0-0ubuntu1. Nominate only for Oracular and Noble.
