The AMW0_GUID1 wmi is not only found on Acer family but also other
machines like Lenovo, Fujitsu and Medion. In the past days, acer-wmi
driver handled those non-Acer machines by quirks list.

But actually acer-wmi driver was loaded on any machines that have
AMW0_GUID1. This behavior is strange because those machines should
be supported by appropriate wmi drivers. e.g. fujitsu-laptop,
ideapad-laptop.

So, This patch adds the logic to check the machine that has AMW0_GUID1
should be in Acer/Packard Bell/Gateway white list. But, it still keeps
the quirk list of those supported non-acer machines for backward
compatible.

Xiaomi Air 13.3 notebook suffers from the same issue, acer-wmi
basically has no use on this machine. With your patch, acer-wmi no
longer loads.
