"10EC5280" is used by several manufacturers like Lenovo, GPD, or AYA (and probably others) in their ACPI table as the ID for the bmi160 IMU. This means the bmi160_i2c driver won't bind to it, and the IMU is unavailable to the user. Manufacturers have been approached on several occasions to try getting a BIOS with a fixed ID, mostly without actual positive results, and since affected devices are already a few years old, this is not expected to change. This patch enables using the bmi160_i2c driver for the bmi160 IMU on these devices. Here is the relevant extract from the DSDT of a GPD Win Max 2 (AMD 6800U model) with the latest firmware 1.05 installed. GPD sees this as WONTFIX with the argument of the device working with the Windows drivers.
