ASUSTek keeps feeding us with broken ECDT tables, which are very hard to workaround.
So, we end up always checking that ECDT from ASUS has the same info as DSDT, and

I wish we would do more of that, AND printk "BIOS BUG" and "FIRMWARE BUG"
everytime we activate any quirk or bug due to something we are completely
sure to be a vendor firmware screw-up.
I've talked to several Taiwanese notebook BIOS writers lately, and they all seem to
know only one thing -- if Windows boots, BIOS is ok. So we might write huge banners in
neon letters -- it will not work...
Otherwise, the situation never seems to get better :(
