platform/x86: acer-wmi: Stop using ACPI bitmap for platform profile choices
It turns out that the platform firmware on some models does not return valid data when reading the bitmap of supported platform profiles. This prevents the driver from loading on said models, even when the platform profile interface itself works. Fix this by stop using said bitmap until we have figured out how the OEM software itself detects available platform profiles. Tested-by: Lynne Megido <lynne@bune.city> Reported-by: Lynne Megido <lynne@bune.city> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/3f56e68f-85df-4c0a-982c-43f9d635be38@bune.city/ Fixes: 191e21f1a4c3 ("platform/x86: acer-wmi: use an ACPI bitmap to set the platform profile choices") Signed-off-by: Armin Wolf <W_Armin@gmx.de> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250826204007.5088-1-W_Armin@gmx.de Reviewed-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>
