E.g. apple_set_os [[VENDOR] VERSION] On the other hand we should probably start collecting whitelist of macs who need this and do it on them automatically. Idk if there is EFI variable to identify mac model from EFI but it's possible from SMBIOS.
I'll try to find the time to implement the command line arguments tonight, and I am pretty sure that there is a way to get the model from EFI. I just hope that Apple implemented this correctly.
One thing I'm still wondering about is how this could integrate better with EFISTUB. Do you know how for example the broadcom fix is applied in that scenario? Is the same fix just duplicated in the Linux kernel? Because if we implement a whitelist in grub and then suddenly Linux boot properly with grub but not directly with EFISTUB things become quite ugly.
