So, I'm not sure if there is some precedent for this (but maybe we
haven't really had this problem before).. but as I mentioned on
#arch64-laptops, I think we should put vendor/product/board-id strings
from SMBIOS table in the dts files.  That could be used by grub to
find the correct dtb file to load in a generic way.  (Ie, look for a
match of all three strings, and maybe fallback to a match on just
vendor+product??)

At any rate, how the strings are used can be refined later.  But I
think we should include the strings from the beginning for anything
that is booting via UEFI.  It's perhaps more useful than the
compatible string.
