Yes, it should be a broken BIOS. 

But, this platform is a product sold out in market as Bauer answered, we'd
better to take this quirk for now to work around the boot hang problem as not
all users know modifying the cmdline. And remove the quirk once this broken
BIOS get fixed.

I don't know if there is a rule for justify adding a quirk, please let me know
if there is some. thanks!
