[ Test case ]

Install the latest linux-6.11 kernel on Noble:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:canonical-kernel-team/ppa
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install linux-image-6.11.0-12-generic \
                   linux-modules-6.11.0-12-generic \
                   linux-modules-extra-6.11.0-12-generic \
                   linux-headers-6.11.0-12-generic

Install librem-ec-acpi-dkms:

$ sudo apt install librem-ec-acpi-dkms

Load the module:

$ sudo modprobe librem-ec-acpi

[ Fix ]

Patch the code to properly support the new linux 6.11 ABI.

[ Regression potential ]

A regression is unlikely due to the limited scope of the patch.
