** Description changed:
+ [SRU Justification]
+
+ [Impact]
+
+ Failed to load i915 GSC (Graphics Security Controller) firmware on Intel ARL
platforms:
+ ```
+ kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] ERROR GT1: Request submission for GSC load
failed -ETIME
+ kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] ERROR GT1: Failed to load GSC firmware
i915/mtl_gsc_1.bin -ETIME
+ ```
+
+ [Fix]
+
+ Upstream commit e0ee2f91c ("i915: Update MTL/ARL GSC to
+ v102.1.15.1926").
+
+ [Test Case]
+
+ 1. Install linux-firmware from -proposed pocket,
+
+ 2. Reboot and check dmesg. The GSC firmware should be loaded successfully:
+ ```
+ i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] GT1: Loaded GSC firmware i915/mtl_gsc_1.bin (cv1.0,
r102.1.15.1926, svn 1)
+ ```
+
+ [Where problems could occur]
+
+ The GSC firmware is an opaque binary for us, and Intel ARL platforms equip
same graphic core with MeteorLake. This update will also affect MTL and other
few platforms.
+
+ [Other Info]
+
+ linux-firmware/plucky has the fix since version
+ 20241118.git6e4e94b0-0ubuntu1. Nominate only for Oracular and Noble.
