Can we at least get abrt to stop doing this? Is this a case of bad WARN_ON() usage? Meaning: WARN_ON is supposed to be used on unexpected conditions indicative of possible bugs. Broken BIOS is not a kernel bug. We downgraded a few WARN_ONs to mere printks before.

We downgraded a few WARN_ONs to mere printks before. Well, we do want users to see the warnings. And they dump hardware and BIOS vendor names and versions. Maybe upstream needs to add WARN_BROKEN_HARDWARE or something?
