Bug description:
SRU Justification
[Impact]
The i915 doesn't load and got below message
Jun 03 04:23:16 kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: Your graphics device 7dd5 is not properly supported by i915 in this kernel version. To force driver probe anyway, use i915.force_probe=7dd5 module parameter or CONFIG_DRM_I915_FORCE_PROBE=7dd5 configuration option, or (recommended) check for kernel updates.

[Fix]
Applied below commit fixes the issue
213c43676beb drm/i915/mtl: Remove the 'force_probe' requirement for Meteor Lake

[Test]
1. boot up mtl system
2. see if the graphics works normal

[Where problems could occur]
We have been using 6.5-oem kernel for quite a long time to support mtl platforms. So far, we don't see any i915 gfx related issues. So, it should be safe to remove mtl force_probe on 6.5-hwe kernel.

================================================

I'm currently install Ubuntu 22.04.4 on HP ZBook Power 16 G11, and I
got this message from kernel:

                        or (recommended) check for kernel updates.
