Issues with TrackPoint on NFC models, as noted in this bbs thread, on the Lenovo forums and on Unix StackExchange
CPU throttling
Inclusion of X1C6(and Thinkpads in general) into the fwupd program

See github.com/nmikhailov/Validity90, especially the 9a branch.

Device id: 06cb:009a

Status as of 04/2018: "Init works, leds work, scan doesn't work yet"

Possible solutions:

Update of UEFI firmware to allow S3 sleep instead of Si03, i.e. an alternative BIOS for Linux users
Making Linux play nicely with Si03, which means:
- Activating acpi.ec_no_wakeup=1, which sacrifices the functionality of opening the lid to return from suspend
- Fixing the SD-Card reader to consume less power in Si03
Patching the DSDT tables as noted on delta-xi and the forums (potentially dangerous and does not play nicely with BIOS updates)
