That likely means the previous behavior was the same as (or at least
analogous to) what happens on Windows which is what the firmware has
been tested against and that's why the bug in it has not been caught.
That in turn indicates that there may be more systems having this kind
of problems, possibly from other vendors too, so I'm wondering if we
can do something more generic than using a quirk here?
