Re: [PATCH] firmware/dmi_scan: generalize for use by other archs

From: Ard Biesheuvel

Hello all,

Resending this patch to a slightly wider audience.

The point of this patch is reworking the dmi_scan code slightly so it
can be reused on ARM and arm64.
There are no functional changes for x86 or IA-64, just one open
question, i.e., whether the non-EFI fallback probe should be performed
on IA-64 in the first place.

If I could get acks for this patch please (if there are no
objections), I will propose it to be merged through the ARM and/or
arm64 trees as part of the complete series to enable SMBIOS.

Regards,
Ard.
