Thank you for your patch.

As Armin has mentioned, please change the driver to use the
WMI bus model and make it a wmi_driver.

A simple example (except for it using multiple WMI GUIDs) of such
a driver would be drivers/platform/x86/xiaomi-wmi.c

Please model your driver after this. This means you will be able
to drop the wmi_has_guid(POSITIVO_WMI_EVENT_GUID) from your
module_init() function (which will now become a probe function).

You do still need to keep the DMI check, since as Armin pointed
out the GUID unfortunately is not unique, but instead used the
Microsoft WMI docs example GUID.

Armin, we have seen this (using Microsoft WMI example GUID)
before and there is nothing we can do about this except add
a DMI check. This works for Windows because the WMI driver
for this for Windows is part of the factory image and presumably
has never been added to Windows Updates avoiding the GUID conflict.

Regards,

Hans
