Always use () after function names, thank you.

Hi,

Thank you for your patch. This has already come up but no acceptable patch 
has emerged since. Please see this thread for what needs to be done if you 
want to provide one (or maybe Shyam already has one which has just not 
been sent out yet):

https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/3b224c62-a1d8-41bd-aced-5825f5f20e66@xxxxxxx/

(Since this dram size is on an init path that always needs SMU version, 
the SMU version can just be called by the init unconditonally rather than 
adding more of this lazy initialization everywhere).
