For machines with AMD graphic chips, it will send out WMI event and ACPI interrupt at the same time while hitting the hotkey. BIOS will notify the system the next display output mode throught WMI event code, so that windows' application can show an OSD to tell the user which mode will be taken effect. User can hit the display toggle key many times within 2 seconds to choose the mode they want. After 2 seconds, WMI dirver should send a WMIMethod(SDSP) command to tell the BIOS which mode the user chose. And then BIOS will raise another ACPI interrupt to tell the system to really switch the display mode. In Linux desktop, we don't have this kind of OSD to let users to choose the mode they want, so we don't need to call WMIMethod(SDSP) to have another ACPI interrupt. To simplify the problem, we just have to ignore the WMI event, and let the first ACPI interrupt to send out the key event. For the need, here comes another quirk to add machines with this kind of behavior. When the WMI driver receives the display toggle WMI event, and found the machin is in the list, it will do nothing and let ACPI video driver to report the key event.
