Bug#941660: linux-image-5.2: please enable CONFIG_i2C_AMD_MP2 to make peripherals bound to AMD's platform bus work.
Package: linux-source
Version: 5.2+106~bpo10+1
Severity: wishlist
Dear maintainers,
on AMD Ryzen based laptops several peripherals (such as the touchpad) are connected by the i2c-amd-mp2 bus.
The drivers for this bus system were merged into the upstream kernel release 5.2. While Debian Buster only
supports the kernel 4.19, its backport repository contains kernel 5.2 which could allow to use the AMD bus.
Unfortunately the configuration flag CONFIG_I2C_AMD_MP2 has not been set yet. Therefore I suggest to enable
it for kernel 5.2 and above in buster-backports and any newer release.
Thank you
Best regards
Jonas
