Gregory who is CCed since the start of the thread might care to look
into this. According to a quick search lspci is right, but this needs
expects. Maybe it's just a cosmetic problem.

Not sure if I properly understand this.

Is this broken in 6.1.y as well, but working in earlier kernels? Then it
needs a separate report.

Or do you mean the disagreement? Maybe mentioning Gregory's name above
will do the trick to make the Intel folks look into this.
