So then apply the first version without this #if.

Why not? Coreboot is supposed to work on real hardware too. Does OpenBIOS
work on any? If not why make it more complicated than it needs to be?
There has to be an end somewhere for putting conditionals everywhere. The
next person that tests OpenBIOS on something where this driver does not
work can special case that but until then why can't we assume it should
work?
