[PATCH] arm64: dmi: initialize DMI earlier in boot

Currently, DMI initialization takes place in a core initcall. This
limits how early in boot the kernel can make DMI-based decisions
about firmware/hardware quirks. This patch moves DMI initialization
to setup_arch() so that DMI info is available before initcalls run.
