Subject: [PATCH 1/2] firmware: dmi_scan: Simplified displayed version

The trailing .x adds no information for the reader, and if anyone
tries to parse that line, this is more work as they have 3 different
formats to handle instead of 2. Plus, this makes backporting fixes
harder.

Fixes: 95be58df74a5 ("firmware: dmi_scan: Use full dmi version for SMBIOS3")

It doesn't actually "fix" the mentioned commit, as there is no bug, but
if anyone backports dmi-related commits, picking this one will make
his/her life easier.
