Subject: [Patch v2 0/3] firmware: dmi_scan: add SBMIOS entry point and DMI tables

This series adds SMBIOS entry point table and DMI table under
/sys/firmware/dmi/tables in order to use as an alternative to utilities
reading them from /dev/mem.

Based on linux next
+ 2 patches that have not been sent by Jean Dalvere yet. They can be changed,
but, anyway, the series should be based on smth and it's desirable w/o
conflicts. The patches can be obtained with links:

http://jdelvare.nerim.net/devel/linux-3/jdelvare-dmi/firmware-dmi-03-simplify-displayed-version.patch
http://jdelvare.nerim.net/devel/linux-3/jdelvare-dmi/firmware-dmi-04-fix-product-uuid.patch

Link on V1:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/2/297

Changes since V1
	- correct error path in dmi-sysfs
	- don't use globally dmi_table var
	- use "DMI" in attribute name
	- correct error path in dmi_init
	- leave dmi_kobj even in case of error
	- include linux/kobject.h in header
