Commit 0adf3c746a73684b3f8c2821a584e1db998f61e9 introduced a regression by making the ECDT validation test for ASUS hardware more restrictive. The previous test used the dmi_name_in_vendors function which searches a number of DMI fields, while the new test checked only the BIOS vendor, which is known to not match on an ASUS F5GL laptop which requires ECDT validation. Add a rule to ec_dmi_table based on an alternative DMI pattern for ASUS hardware as found elsewhere in the kernel. Cc: Alexey Starikovskiy <astarikovskiy@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Peter Collingbourne <peter@xxxxxxxxx> --- According to a Google search [1], it seems unlikely that the ASUS rule introduced by 0adf3c7 would ever match ASUS hardware. I wonder if it is worth removing it.
