[PATCH RFC 6.6.y 12/15] platform/x86: think-lmi: Fix password opcode ordering for workstations

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Mark Pearson <mpearson-lenovo@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 6f7d0f5fd8e440c3446560100ac4ff9a55eec340 ]

The Lenovo workstations require the password opcode to be run before
the attribute value is changed (if Admin password is enabled).

Tested on some Thinkpads to confirm they are OK with this order too.
