Merge branch 'dmi-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jdelvare/staging

Pull DMI updates from Jean Delvare:
 "The most important change is the new sysfs interface to the DMI table,
  which will let user-space tools (such as dmidecode) access the table
  without relying on /dev/mem"

* 'dmi-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jdelvare/staging:
