Commit 9e36775c22 ("mfd: kempld: Remove custom DMI matching code")
removes the ability to load the driver if no matching system DMI data
is found. Before this commit the driver could be loaded using
alternative methods such as ACPI or `force_device_id` in the absence
of a matching system DMI entry.
Restore this ability while keeping the refactored
`platform_device_info` table.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
