Armin Wolf f86f09ad9a platform/x86: wmi: Remove obsolete duplicate GUID allowlist ...

The whitelist-based approach for preventing older WMI drivers from
being instantiated multiple times has many drawbacks:

- uses cannot see all available WMI devices (if not whitelisted)
- whitelisting a WMI driver requires changes in the WMI driver core
- maintenance burden for driver and subsystem developers

Since the WMI driver core already takes care that older WMI drivers
are not being instantiated multiple times, remove the now redundant
whitelist.

Tested on a ASUS Prime B650-Plus.
