I believe all shipping BIOSes use "Google" as vendor, as it is what is
specified in src/mainboard/google/Kconfig::MAINBOARD_VENDOR and our
configs/build scripts do not override it.

I do not know why we have this difference.

Hmm, I just tried checking out tree from
https://review.coreboot.org/coreboot.git and do not see this commit:

dtor@...r-ws:~/coreboot $ git show f56db262e46d3368ee4e5c9e19797853cab382cd
fatal: bad object f56db262e46d3368ee4e5c9e19797853cab382cd
dtor@...r-ws:~/coreboot $ git log --oneline -1 HEAD
82d0f91420 (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD) soc/intel/apollolake: enable exception handling in every stage for glk      

Anyway, if you are overriding the shipping BIOS, then please adjust
coreboot to use device-tree compatible bindings (via PRP0001 HID and
_DSD properties - you can check out bindings for PENH device in Caroline
to see how they can be used). This way we would not need to breed DMI
quirks.

Thanks.
