๐ NVIDIA 1080Ti rant/question

I have a (actually two) 1080Ti in my system. Obviously I only have Linux installed, I didn't use Windows for years on any of my systems. For quite a while now, I have the problem that during system boot I see... nothing! Only once the nvidia driver is loaded and X is started I see something.
Now I did some research, and the most likely solution is a firmware patch from NVIDIA: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/nv-uefi-update-x64/
And while they have drivers, they don't have a Linux alternative for their firmware patches...
Eventually I'd like to have that issue solved. I find myself avoiding kernel updates just because troubleshooting is annoying if I can't see anything, not ideal.
Now, what's your best solution to this one? The only one I could come up with so far was to find some live Windows (I found Windows To Go, but it seems that needs a Windows system to set up, we have a chicken-egg situation), install Nvidia drivers on it and apply the firmware update from the Live system, then boot Linux again. I haven't found a Live Windows yet that I can make on Linux.
Anybody got an idea?
