Some (somewhat older) Lenovo laptops have a correct BGRT table, except that the version field is 0 instead of 1. Quickly after finding this out, even before submitting a first version of this patch upstream, the list of DMI matches for affected models grew to 3 models (all Ivy Bridge based). So rather then maintaining an ever growing list with DMI matches for affected Lenovo models, this commit simply checks if the vendor is Lenovo when the version is 0 and in that case accepts the out of spec version working around the Lenovo firmware bug.
