Subject: efistub/x86: Add fallback for SMBIOS record lookup
X-Git-Url: https://gentwo.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4f90742d4a09a8253861b0d5fd0984e3cd399c9b;p=linux%2F.git

efistub/x86: Add fallback for SMBIOS record lookup

Some Apple EFI firmwares do not provide the SMBIOS Protocol,
causing efi_get_smbios_record() to fail. This prevents retrieval of
system information such as product name, which is needed by
apple_set_os() to enable the integrated GPU on dual-graphics Intel
MacBooks.

Add a fallback that directly parses the SMBIOS entry point table when
the protocol is unavailable.
