Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 2/3] hwmon: (asus_wmi_ec_sensors) Support B550 Asus WMI.

Hi All,

I migrated that ASUS machine to another distribution (Arch -> Gentoo,
kernel versions 5.14.8 -> 5.14.14) and surprisingly reading EC
registers became faster. I accumulated data from 14133 read operations
and the times are distributed as follows: 84 % at 4 ms, 10 % at 5 ms,
5.0 % at 6 ms and the rest is between 3 and 9 ms (but concentrating
around multiples of 0.5 ms).

In the meantime the only other user who provided EC read timeouts
showed 14 ms per EC read too.

Regards,
Eugene
