Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: dell-smbios: only run if proper oem string is detected
Git-commit: 980f481d63f57bb62ac171a66294de3e14d52b77
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc1
References: FATE#325842
The proper way to indicate that a system is a 'supported' Dell System
is by the presence of this string in OEM strings.
Allowing the driver to load on non-Dell systems will have undefined
results.
