i8k for Dell Vostro (patch)

This trivial patch adds support for i8k on the new Dell Vostro models.
I tested it on my Vostro 1400, and it works. It does print a warning
when loading the module:

i8k: unable to get SMM BIOS version

But I couldn't figure out how to fix that. The module seems to work fine,
anyway...

Fede
