FWIW we use this other quirk: DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_FAMILY, "Google"),
Unfortunately DMI_PRODUCT_FAMILY is empty on these particular devices. The coreboot version field is the only entry that has "Google" in it.
well then you have additional issues with the DMI quirk for the firmware selection in sound/soc/sof/sof-pci-dev.c,
{ .ident = "Google Chromebooks", .callback = chromebook_use_community_key, .matches = { DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_FAMILY, "Google"), } },
which means you need additional kernel parameters to provide the location of the firmware....
How many engineers does it take to identify a Chromebook, eh?
Ha! There has been some discussion about this: to come up with a canonical way for Chromebook identification throughout the kernel. But nothing has been settled on AFAIK.
There's been multiple rounds of discussions with Curtis, we introduced DMI_OEM_STRING but it's still not good enough, and now the previous conventions are not being followed on what is a relatively old platform already...
