** Summary changed:
- drm/i915: Drop force_probe requirement for RKL
+ drm/i915: Drop force_probe requirement for Rocket Lake
** Description changed:
- drm/i915 currently requires using i915.force_probe=NNNN to load the
- driver on RKL, but we should drop the requirement from this kernel so
- that machines being tested don't need to work around it locally.
+ [Impact]
+ drm/i915 currently requires using i915.force_probe=NNNN to load the driver on
RKL, but we should drop the requirement from this kernel so that machines being
tested don't need to work around it locally.
+
+ [Test case]
+ Enable in the kernel, boot it on RKL, see that graphics use the native driver.

+ [What could go wrong]
+ Only affects RKL, so it's possible that RKL hw that would fail to boot with
the native driver would regress, compared to fallback driver. But we've had
this enabled for oem-5.10 since the start, and there are no RKL related fixes
not already found in 5.11, so it should be safe to enable.
** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New

Enable in the kernel, boot it on RKL, see that graphics use the native driver.
