I have a Lenovo ThinkPad T14s set up now so I gave this series a spin
there too, and there I do *not* see the above mentioned -EOPNOSUPP error
and the memlat driver probes successfully.

On the other hand, this series seems to have no effect on a kernel
compilation benchmark. Is that expected?

And does this mean that you should stick with the uppercase "MEMLAT"
string after all? The firmware on my CRD is not the latest one, but I am
using the latest available firmware for the T14s.
