[PATCH 2/3] ARM64:DMI: Add smbios/dmi support on arm64

Add smbios/dmi support on arm64 system, it depends on
EFI boot.

efi_lookup_mapped_addr() isn't able to translate the address range
which is reported as reserved type from UEFI. Following the UEFI
spec 2.4, it descripts the SMBIOS data should be runtime service
type. So it depends on a UEFI patch to convert reserved type to 
runtime service type for SMBIOS and a linux dmi driver patch that
has been posted for review to x86 and ia64.
