Yes: it doesn't really make any sense. The report says the device
stopped showing up with message:

  nvme nvme0: Device not ready; aborting initialisation, CSTS=0x0

That (a) happens long before the mentioned quirk is considered by the
driver, and (b) the "quirk" behavior is now the default in 6.5 and
several of the listed stable kernels anyway.

It more likely sounds like the device is flaky and either never becomes
ready due to some unspecified internal firmware condition, or
inaccurately reports how long it actually needs to become ready in
worst-case-scenario.
