Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: hp-wmi: Add OMEN board 8A17 thermal profile
support
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The HP OMEN 17-ck1xxx (board 8A17) isn't in omen_thermal_profile_boards, so hp-wmi uses the generic thermal profile query. The firmware only stores that value and never acts on it, so the EC stays in its default mode and the CPU is held at 45 W whatever profile is selected.

The board uses the OMEN interface (mode byte at EC 0x95, thermal policy v1) and also needs the timed profile quirk: without it, the EC drops back to the default mode about two minutes after each profile change.

Add 8A17 to omen_thermal_profile_boards and
omen_timed_thermal_profile_boards.

With this, all three profiles work and sustained package power under load goes from 45 W to 56-79 W.

[ Upstream commit d35a1ea827a2efaea7fb059ffafefae7c13b9556 ]

The HP OMEN 17-ck1xxx (board 8A17) isn't in omen_thermal_profile_boards, so hp-wmi uses the generic thermal profile query. The firmware only stores that value and never acts on it, so the EC stays in its default mode and the CPU is held at 45 W whatever profile is selected.
