This patch from Alex Chiang exports onboard device information
as defined by SMBIOS type 209 for HP Proliants systems.

Hi,

Not sure if it really matters, but I'm no longer at HP and thus
my email address below is dead.

From: Alex Chiang <redacted>

Some legacy platforms provide onboard device information in an
SMBIOS OEM- defined field, notably HP Proliants.

I wrote this code when I was still at HP, so I suppose they
should get the git commit "credit" for it, unless there's already
a well-known convention of what to do when an email address
changes.

Thanks,
