In linux kernel since version 5.2 (release Date: 2019-07-07)
Driver for AC devices connected via/managed by the Surface System
Aggregator Module (SSAM).
This driver provides AC-information and -status support for Surface
devices where said data is not exposed via the standard ACPI devices.
On those models (7th-generation), AC-information is instead handled
directly via a SSAM client device and this driver.
Say M or Y here to include AC status support for 7th-generation
Microsoft Surface devices, i.e. Surface Pro 7, Surface Laptop 3,
Surface Book 3, and Surface Laptop Go.
