Overall, what about the appended patch instead of your [2-3/4] (modulo the new
command line parameter description which is missing here ATM)?

+	  The platform firmware on some systems expects Linux to return "5" as
+	  the supported ACPI revision which makes it expose system configuration
+	  information in a special way.
+
+	  For example, based on what ACPI exports as the supported revision,
+	  Dell XPS 13 (2015) configures its audio device to either work in HDA
+	  mode or in I2S mode, where the former is supposed to be used on Linux
+	  until the latter is fully supported (in the kernel as well as in user
+	  space).
+
+	  This option enables a DMI-based quirk for the above Dell machine (so
+	  that HDA audio is exposed by the platform  firmware to the kernel) and
+	  makes it possible to force the kernel to return "5" as the supported
+	  ACPI revision via the "acpi_rev_override" command line switch (when
+	  using that switch it may be necessary to carry out a cold reboot
+	  _twice_ in a row to make it take effect on the firmware).
