Thank you for your patch-series, I've applied the series to my
review-hans branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=review-hans

One thing which I noticed during review of patch 3/4 is that
some WMI drivers might benefit from having a wmidev_block_query_typed()
similar to how we have a acpi_evaluate_dsm_typed() which takes an
ACPI type and returns a NULL pointer instead of a wrongly typed
ACPI object when the type does not match. Specifically this
would allow dropping the return obj type checking from
sbl-fw-update.c : get_fwu_request() .

Now adding a wmidev_block_query_typed() wrapper around
wmidev_block_query () just for this is not really a win,
but it might be useful in the future ? Anyways just an idea.

Regards,

Hans
