[PATCH] thinkpad-acpi: recognize latest V-Series using DMI_BIOS_VENDOR

[manoj . iyer]

From: Manoj Iyer <manoj.iyer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

In the latest V-series bios DMI_PRODUCT_VERSION does not contain
the string Lenovo or Thinkpad, but is set to the model number, this
causes the thinkpad_acpi module to fail to load. Recognize laptop
as Lenovo using DMI_BIOS_VENDOR instead, which is set to Lenovo.

BIOS Information
        Vendor: LENOVO
        Version: H7ET21WW (1.00 )

System Information
        Manufacturer: LENOVO
        Product Name: LV5DXXX
        Version: V490u

This was tested by me on the Lenovo V490u
