** Description changed:

  [ Impact ]
  
  To support PMF driver on new AMD silicon, ID AMDI0112 needs to be added
  into the PMD driver.
  
- 
  [ Fix ]
  
- Cherry-pick the following patch:
+ Backport the following patch:
  
  1. [PATCH] platform/x86/amd/pmf: Add AMDI0112 ACPI ID[1]
- 
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
  Boot the kernel with the said patch. The PMF driver should bind.
- 
  
  [ Where problems could occur ]
  
  Unless there is existing hardware using this ID already (which likely
  would be an BIOS issue), this is new hardware enablement, so nothing
  earlier to regress from.
  
+ Although it's just adding an ID, this patch won't apply on 7.0-oem,
+ because it depends on the code context from [2] and [3], which are PMF
+ support for even newer silicon. It'll take another 2 patch series (12
+ patches) to make this patch apply cleanly and PMF for this ID doesn't
+ need those patches to work. This ID is added at this point of time as an
+ afterthought for older silicon.
