I think we can make this simpler and more deterministic with a "force"
option? Something like:

@@ -1397,8 +1397,12 @@ static int acpi_nfit_add_dimm(struct
acpi_nfit_desc *acpi_desc,
         * tells us if any commands are reachable through this uuid.
         */
        for (i = NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL; i <= NVDIMM_FAMILY_MSFT; i++)
-               if (acpi_check_dsm(adev_dimm->handle, to_nfit_uuid(i), 1, 1))
-                       break;
+               if (acpi_check_dsm(adev_dimm->handle, to_nfit_uuid(i), 1, 1)) {
+                       if (force_dsm_family < 0)
+                               break;
+                       else if (i == force_dsm_family)
+                               break;
+               }

        /* limit the supported commands to those that are publicly documented */
        nfit_mem->family = i;

...because the user specifying the override should know ahead of time
if that family is available, and we should fail the detection
otherwise.
