Mario, are you able to check if instance number passed to
wmi_evaluate_method in following dell WMI drivers is correct and should
be really 1?

I suspect that it should be zero, as instance number is indexed from
zero.

There is no comment in those dell WMI drivers why it is 1, nor what 1
means.

Ideally it needs to be checked in ACPI byte code, MOF file and WDG dump.
