Subject: [PATCH 5.14 047/172] platform/x86/intel: hid: Add DMI switches allow list

From: José Expósito <jose.exposito89@...il.com>

commit b201cb0ebe87b209e252d85668e517ac1929e250 upstream.

Some devices, even non convertible ones, can send incorrect
SW_TABLET_MODE reports.

Add an allow list and accept such reports only from devices in it.

Bug reported for Dell XPS 17 9710 on:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libinput/libinput/-/issues/662
