DMI detection

I haven't seen where doing a 'make' will write DMI stuff to .config.
But you never know. Not that you can look in .config from a running
kernel anyway...

I don't think we have any choice but to copy what we need from
dmi_scan.c and put it in piix4.c.
And copy dmidecode.c (that I found on Alan's server and I sent you)
and port it to perl and put it in sensors-detect. Yuck.

Actually I think we should take i8k.c and make it a combination bus/chip
driver
for our package. THAT would be a good project.
