I understand the motivation, but afraid about consequences on the OEM cheap
devices that are not always follow letter of the specification.

As per Intel platforms I would look into Baytrail / Cherrytrail devices for
the past (I think Hans may help here a lot) and into Elkhart Lake in the
present (for the letter I mostly refer to CSRT + DSDT cooperation to get
GP DMA devices enumerated, so I _hope_ DSDT shouldn't have _ADR and _HID
together).

Hence, from the code perspective

information about latest firmware tables on Elkhart Lake machines.
