What's inside other wmi_bus-PNP0C14* folders?

By previous experience, BIOS vendor may implement some WMI interface
that can be used to control anything they want. Somehow such interfaces
could be misused on Linux as they're mostly designed for Windows. For
example, 86CCFD48-205E-4A77-9C48-2021CBEDE341 is for controlling Intel
thunderbolt power, and it should not appear on a platform without
thunderbolt ports. When it goes wrong, the most appropriate solution
should be in the BIOS side, so looking for new BIOS updates should be
the first thing you wanna try, but sometimes you can only try work
arounds like removing fwupd/boltd or so.
