```

The above messages are in the order as they occur in the output. I haven't
noticed any critical crash despite these errors in the last 48 hours (installed
Linux for the first time on this specific hardware).

I tried playing with the `acpi_osi` string just in case, since my old laptop
needed that, but that doesn't help.

Reporting this here because same errors occur on Fedora as well as Arch.

This could be a firmware issue, but I am not sure. I tried calling Dell's
Support and they outright declined providing any support because of "Linux".

Let me know if any additional info is needed. I have attached the `acpidump`
output.
