Hi Frank,

` cmd 2 failed 10` means the firmware image loaded is wrong.
Please refer to https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/SJ0PR11MB5613CE62B68CA4AD9B1ED33693D52@SJ0PR11MB5613.namprd11.prod.outlook.com/T/#u

>## Questions
>
>1. Is Panther Lake ISH support planned for the upstream ISH driver?
The driver already supports the Panther Lake ISH.

>2. Does the ISHD ACPI device need a _HID for Linux to probe it?
No.

>3. Should the intel_ish_ipc driver call ACPI _DSM during initialization?
No.

>4. Is there a specific ISH firmware version needed for Panther Lake?
