It's been de-facto reclaimed by Intel over the years, apparently using
INTC or INTL was too hard for some of my colleagues...

There are lots of INT devices in the kernel today, here's a small list
for sound/soc/codecs only

rt274.c:        { "INT34C2", 0 },
rt286.c:        { "INT343A", 0 },
rt298.c:        { "INT343A", 0 },
ssm4567.c:      { "INT343B", 0 },

Those INT values were added by Intel teams though, it's really odd to
see Lenovo use an INT-based HID. Should really use 104C2563 or something.

you can probably see from the /sys directory what the pm_runtime power
state is, most likely the status is 'unknown'.
