Is this the specific product you're referring to?

I'm quite confused why this is necessary.  If the product link
I sent above is correct, this is an AMD Barcelo APU.

Cezanne and Barcelo report as the exact same X86 model.

Cezanne will already always identify as simple
suspend due to bugs that were reported on some other machines.
It's been this way since kernel 6.3-rc1.

StorageD3Enable")

Hi Mario,

The product link you posted is correct. I was not aware of e2a56364485e
when I developed the fix herein before v6.3. After some quick testing, I can
confirm that e2a56364485e solves the original issue.

We do not need this patch then.

Thank you,
Alex
