This, along with the System Firmware (sysfw) interface replaces the existing
DMI code in the kernel.

This subsystem provides functionality for individual drivers to access
the SMBIOS structures for their own use, smbios_walk(), as well as some
helper functions for some kernel modules.

+Description:
+		The dmi class is exported if CONFIG_SMBIOS_DMI_COMPAT is
+		set.
+
+		The DMI code currently exposes several values via sysfs.
+		These values are:
+
+		bios_date: The datestamp of the BIOS.
+		bios_vendor: The company that wrote the BIOS.
+		bios_version: The version of the BIOS.
+		board_asset_tag: A unique identifier for the system
+				 motherboard.
+		board_name: The name of the type of motherboard.
+		board_serial: The serial number of the motherboard.
+		board_vendor: The company that designed the motherboard.
+		board_version: The version of the motherboard.
+		chassis_asset_tag: A unique identifier for the chassis.
+		chassis_serial: The serial number of the chassis.
+		chassis_type: The type of chassis.
+		chassis_vendor: The company that designed the chassis.
+		chassis_version: The version of the chassis.
+		product_name: The name of the system as determined by the
+			      OEM.
+		product_serial: The serial number of the system.
+		product_uuid: A unique UUID for the system.
+		product_version: The version number of the system.
+		sys_vendor: The OEM company for the system.
+
+		In addition to these the standard class files are exposed
+		for DMI (uvent, power, subsystem) as well as a modalias
+		file.
+
+		The dmi class is deprecated and should not be used by new
+		code.  Existing code should be migrated to use
+		/sys/class/smbios/* which exposes the same data.
+		The dmi class link will be removed in July of 2013.
