I don't think it's easy to generalize. All those bugs are more or
less BIOS bugs, and a logic doesn't apply always, just because it's a
bug :) For example, setting the clock selector itself should be a
valid operation from the specification POV, while this leads to
breakage on some devices. So, even if we add a more generic
workaround, we need to see which side effect is more commonly seen at
first.
