I am also seeing this on a the AMD Ryzen desktop system Dell OptiPlex
5055 with Linux 5.13-rc7.

Alex, to summarize, this is a firmware bug, so needs to be reported to
Dell?
Is there any way to check, what features do not work? Then it’d be
easier to verify that and talk to the Dell support.
Lastly, the Dell Linux maintainers could be contacted too.

Title:
wmi_bus wmi_bus-PNP0C14:00: WQBC data block query control method not
found
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I run the kernel 5.4.0-42-generic on a fully up-to-date Ubuntu "focal" on
Dell Latitude E6440.
While scrolling through the output of `journalctl -b` I came across a warning
(marked yellow):
[ 0.659825] wmi_bus wmi_bus-PNP0C14:00: WQBC data block query
control method not found
Now, since this is a warning, I get, ergo, warned. What is it that I
get warned about? Is it just a printf or is some action required? As
every computer, the laptop suffers from various problems from time to
time (e.g., boot or wakeup silently hangs up while the manufacturer
splash screen is displayed), so, I don't know whether this message
could be related to any of such problems.
Here is the context of this warning in dmesg:
