This installs the machine name as recorded by setup_machine_fdt()
as dump stack arch description. This results in the string to be
included in call stack dumps, as is shown here:

  ...
  Bad mode in Synchronous Abort handler detected, code 0x84000005
  CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.18.0-rc2+ #548
> Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT)
  task: ffffffc07c870000 ti: ffffffc07c878000 task.ti: ffffffc07c878000
  PC is at 0x0
  ...

Note that systems that support DMI/SMBIOS may override this later.

Thanks, I've just added this to ARM as well.
