This patch is to add a quirk for this machine to skip member "Revision"
during parsing _BIX returned package.

Do you really need this callback? Why don't you just do:
if (dmi_check_system(bat_dmi_table))
battery_bix_broken_package = 1;
Callback would be useful if we were to print the DMI data of the match,
otherwise not so much.
