Fixes the following error:
dell_smbios: Unable to run on non-Dell system
Which is triggered after dell-wmi driver fails to initialize on
Alienware systems, as it depends on dell-smbios.
This effectively extends dell-wmi, dell-smbios and dcdbas support to
Alienware devices, that might share some features of the SMBIOS intereface
calling interface with other Dell products.
Tested on an Alienware X15 R1.

v2:
- Commit message reflects Alienware devices may not necessarily support
the SMBIOS interface
- Commit message now has "Tested on"
