Applied.

I'd want to see testing on the previous kernels to ensure all the necessary
support for those laptops has also been backported before sending DMI matches
back. We don't want to end up with just the DMI matches in stable kernels, but
inadvertently omit some functional change those machines require which have been
added since the stable release.
