For x86 based machines, set the board_type used for nvram file selection based on the DMI sys-vendor and product-name strings. Since on some models these strings are too generic, this commit also adds a quirk table overriding the strings for models listed in that table. The board_type setting is used to load the board-specific nvram file with a board-specific name so that we can ship files for each supported board in linux-firmware.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
