+ pdx86 ML and Mario.
This driver was only recently made functional due to fixing an
capitalization issue in its ID. Mario has been fixing empty attribute
(and other) problems since then:
releases/6.18.4/platform-x86-hp-bioscfg-fix-out-of-bounds-array-acce.patch
releases/6.18.8/platform-x86-hp-bioscfg-fix-automatic-module-loading.patch
releases/6.18.8/platform-x86-hp-bioscfg-fix-kernel-panic-in-get_instance_id-macro.patch
releases/6.18.8/platform-x86-hp-bioscfg-fix-kobject-warnings-for-empty-attribute-names.patch
releases/6.18.10/platform-x86-hp-bioscfg-skip-empty-attribute-names.patch
It might be worth trying 6.18.10+ as 6.18.9 is missing that last empty
attribute fix.
