Subject: [PATCH v2] platform/x86: thinkpad_acpi: Explicitly set to balanced mode on startup

It was observed that on a Thinkpad T14 Gen1 (AMD) that the platform
profile is starting up in 'low-power' mode after refreshing what the
firmware had.  This is most likely a firmware bug, but as a harmless
workaround set the default profile to 'balanced' at thinkpad_acpi startup.
