System Management BIOS (SMBIOS) is a specification for how motherboard and system vendors present management information about their products in a standard format by extending the BIOS interface on Intel architecture systems. As of today the latest spec is 3.0 and can be downloaded from DMTF website. This commit adds a simple and minimum required implementation.

It might be worth adding docs to the README about what tables U-Boot now supports, how to enable each and what is recommended. There are quite a few now. My head is spinning!
Do you mean what tables in SMBIOS spec are supported by U-Boot, or what tables in PIRQ/MP/ACPI/SMBIOS tables are supported by U-Boot?
I mean the latter. There are quite a few tables and it's not clear what should be used/enabled, what tables conflict, what Linux does with them, why it needs them, etc.
OK, maybe we can document this when ACPI support is ready?
Anytime is fine with me.
