Hmm, since Compulab isn't the subsystem vendor, we can't enable the same
HP quirk using that piece of information.  We can't enable the quirk to
put the host into D3 for all Lynx Point-LP hosts, since that quirk
breaks other vendors' systems.  Does this impact any Lynx Point (non-LP)
systems as well?

So far, two of the other systems that don't react well to the quirk are
both ASRock systems with American Megatrends BIOSes, based on info
provided by Art and Meng.  I can see from Giorgos' posted lspci that his
xHCI also lists ASRock as the Subsystem vendor, although I don't know
what the BIOS manufacturer is.

Niklas's xHCI subsystem VID:PID is 1558:7410, which is CLEVO/KAPOK
Computer Device.  Looks like Clevo is a laptop manufacturer.

Giorgos and Niklas, can you post output from `sudo dmidecode` please?

Denis, what do you mean by "works for Lynx Point"?  Do you mean that
adding the quirk to switch the ports on EHCI on shutdown (e95829f474)
for the Intense-PC2 *instead of* the commit to put the host in D3 on
shutdown (638298dc66) works?  Or do you mean you need both patches for
your system?

If you only need the quirk to switch the ports to EHCI on shutdown, then
we could apply that broadly to Lynx Point LP, and see whether other
BIOSes tolerate that quirk.

The alternative would be to turn on the D3 quirk for systems with an HP
or Phoenix BIOS, by checking dmi_name_in_vendors() for those strings.
