Thank you for your comment.

I will add a note of "potentially unsafe" in v2.
We are considering installing ACPI power meter on a machine under development, but I believe that the DMI (SYS_VENDOR) check included in the driver has too broad a scope.

Sorry, you lost me. Presumably your system would not be an IBM system.
Nothing prevents you from adding a more specific DMI entry (or more
than one). Many DMI matches are for the system vendor, the board vendor,
the product name, or even the BIOS vendor, date, and/or version. Every
value in enum dmi_field can be matched.
