dmi: log board, system, and BIOS information

2010-10-28T01:03:05Z

Put basic system information in the dmesg log. There are lots of dmesg logs on the web, and it would be useful if they contained this information for debugging platform problems. "BOARD/PRODUCT" format copied from show_regs_common(), which is used in the oops path. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: "H.

We failed to check to see if actually allocated structures to contain the iBFT structure and went ahead to dereference it. This patch fixes the OOPS. Reported-by: "Jayamohan Kalickal" Tested-by: "Jayamohan Kalickal" Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk Signed-off-by: Peter Jones
