From: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx>
Several Linux kernel releases have printed DMI info
and asked for e-mail feedback when we see BIOS
AML invoke _OSI(Linux).
We've found exactly two vendors use used _OSI(Linux)
for something on purpose -- Dell and Lenovo, and
those uses are limited to specific models.
We'll work with Dell and Lenovo to get them
out of that mess. In the mean-time, for everybody else,
simply note that Linux ignores OSI(Linux) and move on.
