David Michael 688023cd0a smbios: Add a module for retrieving SMBIOS information
The following are two use cases from Rajat Jain <rajatjain@juniper.net>:

  1) We have a board that boots Linux and this board itself can be plugged
     into one of different chassis types. We need to pass different
     parameters to the kernel based on the "CHASSIS_TYPE" information
     that is passed by the bios in the DMI/SMBIOS tables.

  2) We may have a USB stick that can go into multiple boards, and the
     exact kernel to be loaded depends on the machine information
     (PRODUCT_NAME etc) passed via the DMI.
