The instruction is all inclusive but might not all apply to everyone.
Since your system is a laptop, you don't need to follow step 8 for external keyboard/mouse, it's for Desktop system.
Step 12 are for USB-C ports which only exists in newer system from probably Skylake or Kabylake and up, you could also skip that step for this system.
Clover rename is basically for renaming EHCI / EHC2 to EH01/EH02
Launch your Config file with Clover Configurator, under ACPI, click on the List of Patches drop down, you'll be able to select those two patches.

You could share you file since you had already done all the work for this system. It won't change even if you use different SMBIOS, but you do need to change the definition to whatever SMBIOS you decides to use but the ports are the same.
