Subject: [PATCH 5.10 014/126] ASoC: soc-core: Prevent warning if no DMI table is present

From: Jon Hunter <jonathanh@...dia.com>

[ Upstream commit 7de14d581dbed57c2b3c6afffa2c3fdc6955a3cd ]

Many systems do not use ACPI and hence do not provide a DMI table. On
non-ACPI systems a warning, such as the following, is printed on boot.

 WARNING KERN tegra-audio-graph-card sound: ASoC: no DMI vendor name!

The variable 'dmi_available' is not exported and so currently cannot be
used by kernel modules without adding an accessor. However, it is
possible to use the function is_acpi_device_node() to determine if the
sound card is an ACPI device and hence indicate if we expect a DMI table
to be present. Therefore, call is_acpi_device_node() to see if we are
using ACPI and only parse the DMI table if we are booting with ACPI.
