Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: dell-dw5826e: Add reset driver for DW5826e
Date: Wed, 8 Apr 2026 19:17:38 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260408111738.232040-1-jackbb_wu@compal.com> (raw)
If the DW5826e is in a frozen state and unable to receive USB commands,
this driver provides a method for the user to reset the DW5826e via ACPI.
