** Description changed:

  [ Impact ]
  
  Several new Intel Battlemage cards are unsupported in Ubuntu Plucky and
  lower. This FFe adds the minimum necessary patches (Adding PCI-IDs) to
  enable new Intel Battlemage hardware across several packages. No other
  changes are necessary for this enablement, and impact to existing
  hardware is minimal because there are no functional changes included. We
  should backport these changes to Plucky, Oracular and Noble. The latter
  two can be done in a separate SRU if preferred.
  
  The upstream changesets can be found in the following locations:

  Timo has agreed to take on this part of the FFe, but I will leave the
  patch here to indicate that the efforts should be connected

  intel-gmmlib
  * 
https://github.com/intel/gmmlib/commit/a221d078d1bfdfc580ab0ea343c3eb82c819bd29
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
  To reproduce, run our checkbox-media testing on one of the new GPUs
  before adding these patches. To confirm that the media patches worked,
  install packages with those patches applied, and re-run checkbox-media
  tests.
  
  https://github.com/canonical/checkbox-media
  
  This will test hardware encode and decode at 1080p and 4K for H264, AV1,
  and VP9 as well as running the VPL tests. This testing will cover all
  packages affected here.
  
  [ Where problems could occur ]
  
  While this is a simple, routine change already accepted upstream, no
  change can be totally risk free. In this case, we’re changing something
  as central as Mesa, which is central for multiple hardware vendors. A
  bug there could cause a lot of issues for basic GUI function.
  
  For intel-gmmlib, intel-media-driver, and onevpl-intel-gpu, a bug could
  cause a failure in hardware support for media on Intel.
  
  Issues in compute-runtime would cause failures in OpenCL support for
  Intel hardware.
