If it is already in mainline, i don't care too much if it is wrong. We
don't want to cause regressions.

I only object when adding new nodes which are wrong. If we keep adding
broken nodes, there is no incentive to fix the broken driver to do the
correct thing. Not that me NACKing nodes for the last year or more has
actually made anybody care enough to fix the issue. It seems like
developers are happy to have BMCs without Ethernet in mainline, which
i find odd. There does appear to be sufficient information out there
that anybody could fix this, not just aspeed.
