Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
platform/x86: x86-android-tablets: Fix broken touchscreen on Chuwi Hi8 with Windows BIOS<br />
<br />
The x86-android-tablets handling for the Chuwi Hi8 is only necessary with<br />
the Android BIOS and it is causing problems with the Windows BIOS version.<br />
<br />
Specifically when trying to register the already present touchscreen<br />
x86_acpi_irq_helper_get() calls acpi_unregister_gsi(), this breaks<br />
the working of the touchscreen and also leads to an oops:<br />

<br />
Add an init callback for the Chuwi Hi8, which detects when the Windows BIOS<br />
is in use and exits with -ENODEV in that case, fixing this.
