The Dell XPS 13 DX13260 drives its two CS35L56 sidecar speaker amplifiers through a quirk that Linux only gains in 7.2, so until Arch ships that kernel the machine plays through one amplifier with no bass. The dell-xps13-sidecar-amps package selects the same driver path with a module override; this installs it on that exact machine and nowhere else.
The detector requires both the DX13260 product name and SKU 0E53, because the override forces a quirk value rather than merging into one, and a machine that gets it wrong loses whatever quirk the kernel would have chosen for itself.
Pacman registers a package even when its post_install scriptlet fails, so the leaf calls dell-xps13-sidecar-amps-apply itself instead of trusting the install to have applied: a failed cleanup or boot-image rebuild has to reach the caller rather than hide behind a package pacman considers installed. That is also why the migration marks reboot-required only after the apply succeeds — a migration that exits non-zero keeps no completion marker and retries the apply on the next run, even though pacman already has the package.
The leaf runs after intel/ptl-kernel.sh rather than beside the other Dell leaf at the top of install/hardware/all.sh, so its boot-image rebuild sees the Panther Lake kernel that step swaps in rather than the stock one it removes.

* Disable PSR1 on XPS IPS and OLED. IPS uses PSR2
* Improve conditional flow
* Simplify the migration logic
* We don't actually need this
We are using += everywhere

Detect Intel BE200/BE211 WiFi cards and disable WiFi 7 (EHT) via
modprobe config. The iwlwifi driver has broken EHT RX adaptation
causing APs to drop to MCS 0, making WiFi unusable.
Falling back to WiFi 6 (HE) restores full performance.
Temporary fix: remove when Intel fixes the firmware/driver.
