[PATCH RFC 2/2] platform/x86: alienware-wmi-wmax: Check for AWCC support using _UID
From: Kurt Borja
Date: Sat Mar 08 2025 - 17:06:05 EST
The WMAX _UID of all devices that support the AWCC is "AWCC". This
includes the following devices which were manually by reading their ACPI
tables:
- Dell G16 7630
- Dell G5 5505 SE
- Alienware m16 R1
- Alienware m17 R5 AMD
- Alienware x15 R2
- Alienware 17 R5
- Alienware Aurora R12
- Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition
And possibly many more, if not all devices with this interface.
Add a check for "AWCC" _UID in wmax_wmi_probe() as a last resort test
for support.
