Hi Ilias,

In order to fill in the SMBIOS tables U-Boot currently relies on a "u-boot,sysinfo-smbios" compatible node. This is fine for the boards that already include such nodes. However with some recent EFI changes, the majority of boards can boot up distros, which usually rely on things like dmidecode etc for their reporting. For boards that lack this special node the SMBIOS output looks like:
System Information Manufacturer: Unknown Product Name: Unknown Version: Unknown Serial Number: Unknown UUID: Not Settable Wake-up Type: Reserved SKU Number: Unknown Family: Unknown
This looks problematic since most of the info are "Unknown". The DT spec specifies standard properties containing relevant information like 'model' and 'compatible' for which the suggested format is <manufacturer,model>. Unfortunately the 'model' string found in DTs is usually lacking the manufacturer so we can't use it for both 'Manufacturer' and 'Product Name' SMBIOS entries reliably.
So let's add a last resort to our current smbios parsing. If none of the sysinfo properties are found, scan for those information in the root node of the device tree. Use the 'model' to fill the 'Product Name' and the first value of 'compatible' for the 'Manufacturer', since that always contains one.

Changes since v1:
- Tokenize the DT node entry and use the appropriate value instead of the entire string
- Removed Peters tested/reviewed-by tags due to the above

Can this be put behind a Kconfig? It adds quite a bit of code which punishes those boards which do the right thing.

Any chance of a test for this code?
