That sounds fine.

The bug is not a big deal, I'm just take it as an example and report it to you.
But a real fix can be complex, because there are quite a lot of servers
ship with ASpeed BMC hardware.

Honestly I don't have the time fix it on formal way.
I have already tons patches in pending and I will focus on solve VGAARB related problem.


Because I want to test your patch occasionally.
So this series is useful for myself at corner cases.
