On some TUXEDO platforms, a Samsung 990 Evo NVMe leads to a high
power consumption in s2idle sleep (2-3 watts).

This patch applies 'Force No Simple Suspend' quirk to achieve a
sleep with a lower power consumption, typically around 0.5 watts.

Does this only apply to a specific SSD or all SSDs on this platform?
How do these platforms even get into the conditional? Probably
through acpi_storage_d3 setting, which probably is set incorrectly
for the platform? Any chance to just fix that?

Yes, this only apply to a specific SSD. I tested these SSDs (on
PH4PRX1_PH6PRX1):
* Kingston NV1, SNVS250G
* Samsung 980, MZ-V8V500
* Samsung 970 Evo, S46DNX0K900454D
* Samsung 980 Pro, S69ENX0T709932L

S2idle consumes around 0.4 watts with these SSDs. But with a Samsung 990 Evo
s2idle on this platform consumes 3.7 to 4.4 watts (6.8 vs 6.5 kernel).

For all these different SSDs you tested in this platform, do you see the
"platform quirk: setting simple suspend" in the dmesg? I just want to
confirm if the platform is changing the reported acpi_storage_d3 value
for different SSD models or if they're all the same.

Yes, without my quirk for all tested SSDs (including Samsung 990 Evo) "platform quirk: setting simple suspend" is printed in dmesg.
