In some cases a driver cannot use dmi_check_system because it needs to do more complex checks, involving runtime (non const) variables. In such case the driver will implement its own loop over a dmi_system_id table and to do the dmi matching part of the checks it needs access to dmi_system_id_match. This commit renames dmi_matches to dmi_system_id_match to better reflect what it does and exports it for use in such drivers.
