I'd prefer not to do that if possible. Due to the way that the BIOS
ecosystem works, this kind of broken firmware spreads across the
industry, appearing in newer versions of products from the same vendor
and even products from different vendors.

Continuously updating a quirks table as additional broken platforms
are discovered simply does not scale.
