I cannot risk other drivers having their options disabled. This can
have carry-on effects in other drivers too.
Including in the legion v3 driver, in which you will end up disabling
balanced-performance. Since Derek posted the v3 for that today.

No. amd-pmf is responsible here. That's why you made the multiple
platform profile series after all. Other WMI drivers never load
together. To maintain existing compatibility, those drivers need to
still show the same options under the legacy endpoint.

amd-pmf cannot obscure any settings of the primary platform, so even
in this case it ends up implementing all of them, and compat profiles
becomes equivalent to .secondary with more steps (incl. a probe).
