WMI Device Note
The RGB GUID is present but with a different suffix than expected:
- Expected by module:
7A4DDFE7-5B5D-40B4-8595-4408E0CC7F56
- Actual on this machine:

acer-wmi platform device
The acer-wmi platform device only exposes rfkill nodes (WiFi/Bluetooth).
No turbo, fan, or performance mode sysfs entries are present:
```

/sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/rfkill/rfkill4/ ← WiFi

Request
Could you check which WMI GUID handles the Turbo button on this model?
RGB working confirms the module loads correctly on PHN14-51, so turbo
support may just need the correct GUID mapping added.
Happy to test any patches or provide additional debug output.
