Sure.

drivers/platform/x86/dell-laptop.c:

static const struct dmi_system_id dell_quirks[] __initconst = {
        {
                .callback = dmi_matched,
                .ident = "Dell Vostro V130",
                .matches = {
                        DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "Dell Inc."),
                        DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, "Vostro V130"),
                },
                .driver_data = &quirk_dell_vostro_v130,
        },


(just in case, dmi_matched() is part of that module)
