Subject: [PATCH v4 3/8] platform/x86: think-lmi: Correct System password interface

The system password identification was incorrect. This means that if
the password was enabled it wouldn't be detected correctly; and setting
it would not work.
Also updated code to use TLMI_SMP_PWD instead of TLMI_SYS_PWD to be in
sync with Lenovo documentation.

Fixes: 640a5fa50a42 ("platform/x86: think-lmi: Opcode support")
Signed-off-by: Mark Pearson <mpearson-lenovo@...ebb.ca>

Changes in v2:

 - Clarified in comments what each password type is.
Changes in v3:
 - None. Version bump with rest of series.
Changes in v4:
 - This patch was previously #2 and is now #3 in series.
 - Patch split so comment updates moved into new patch (next in series).
