DMI: allow omitting ident strings in DMI tables
commit 75757507e014fa074d25d2883c4ab604999584bd upstream.
The purpose of dmi->ident is twofold - it may be used by DMI callback
functions when composing log messages; it is also used to determine
end of DMI table in dmi_check_system() and dmi_first_match(). However,
in case when callbacks are not interested in using ident at all it just
wastes memory. Let's make entries with empty first match slot serve as
end-of-table markers instead.
[needed for DMI table changes that need to be done by later patches - gkh]
