Add Quirks and driver properties for Dell models.
Driver properties are required since these models do not have _DSD.
Additionally, some laptops, including some of these, have an issue
with their BIOS which causes the SPI speed to be set too slow.
To ensure a decent performance for laptops with this slow speed,
disable firmware loading. Running without firmware results in lower
volume.

The series doesn't seem applied cleanly.
Could you rebase to my for-linus branch and resubmit?

Though, I feel that it's a bit too much for 6.7 at this very late
stage.  So, I'll likely skip this series and apply to 6.8.
