from xe_wa.c kernel-doc:

  * platform. There are some basic categories of workarounds, depending on
  * how/when they are applied:

   ( ... )
  * - Other/OOB:  There are WAs that, due to their nature, cannot be applied from    
  *   a central place. Those are peppered around the rest of the code, as needed.    
  *   Workarounds related to the display IP are the main example.                    

This can certainly be improved and the link to wa_oob.c made. But it's
not that it was not explained anywhere :)
