I've posted the files. There are signs of buggy BIOS, but I don't expect
any firmware update to be released for this hw anymore.

DMI: Supermicro X9DRi-LN4+/X9DR3-LN4+/X9DRi-LN4+/X9DR3-LN4+, BIOS 3.4 11/20/2019

.text .data .bss are not marked as E820_TYPE_RAM!
tboot: non-0 tboot_addr but it is not of type E820_TYPE_RESERVED

DMAR: [Firmware Bug]: No firmware reserved region can cover this RMRR [0x00000000df243000-0x00000000df251fff], contact BIOS vendor for fixes
DMAR: [Firmware Bug]: Your BIOS is broken; bad RMRR [0x00000000df243000-0x00000000df251fff]



BTW is there a reason for this logging discrepancy?

efi: Remove mem173: MMIO range=[0xe0000000-0xefffffff] (256MB) from e820 map
efi: Not removing mem71: MMIO range=[0xe0000000-0xefffffff] (262144KB) from e820 map

efi: Not removing mem74: MMIO range=[0xff000000-0xffffffff] (16384KB) from e820 map
efi: Remove mem176: MMIO range=[0xff000000-0xffffffff] (16MB) from e820 map

This is arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c:
static void __init efi_remove_e820_mmio(void)

Remove mem%02u: MMIO range=[0x%08llx-0x%08llx] (%lluMB) ... size >> 20
Not removing mem%02u: MMIO range=[0x%08llx-0x%08llx] (%lluKB) ... size >> 10
