You’re probably fine. AMD blamed motherboard makers because one maker in particular, ASRock, has some issues with an old BIOS. When it’s just one company, and that company already has a fix, then yeah, it’s the motherboard maker.
What AMD and Intel can do is set guidelines on how far motherboard makers can go to tweak some performance out of the chips. IIRC, Intel was historically better at this than AMD. They had specific documentation sent out and made sure it was followed. If a customer wants to unlock everything and void their warranty, fine, that’s on them. You just have to make it clear when that line has been crossed.

IIRC Asus had some issues with literally frying CPUs (scorch marks in the actual socket) with early AM5
