Ard Biesheuvel a81114d03e firmware: dmi: handle missing DMI data gracefully
Currently, when booting a kernel with DMI support on a platform that has
no DMI tables, the following output is emitted into the kernel log:

  [    0.128818] DMI not present or invalid.
  ...
  [    1.306659] dmi: Firmware registration failed.
  ...
  [    2.908681] dmi-sysfs: dmi entry is absent.

The first one is a pr_info(), but the subsequent ones are pr_err()s that
complain about a condition that is not really an error to begin with.

So let's clean this up, and give up silently if dma_available is not set.

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
