On TGL-H system, the NVIDIA GPU will fall off the bus after exiting
s2idle if the docking station with external display connected is
unplugged when the system is still in s2idle. The system will be
hold by the infinite loop of the Intel Reference BIOS code which is
used to power on the PEG(PCI Express Graphics) and then fail the
power transition for the NVIDIA GPU.

A BIOS workaround is used to skip the clock source control of the
PCIe root port of the NVIDIA GPU with an _OSI string
"Linux-Dell-USB4-NVWakeup"
