I think the required OEM ID and product id speak volumes for the rest
of the quality issues

Once is correct, twice is fine, zero times would be bad.

That's unrelated -- duplicate reservations are due to the MP table being
located in memory areas marked as "reserved" (ROM, ususally) in the map.
Thus the area is never freed in the first place and when smp_scan_config()
calls reserve_bootmem() for the pages a warning is issued. Harmless,
indeed.

Ah. Ok I'd not seen that specific case

Umm probably worth cleaning up.
