It doesn't apply to 3.14-stable or 3.10-stable, so if you want it there,
can you please provide a backport?
thanks,

I double-checked the code and I don't think these branches are affected
by the bug, so no backporting is needed. I have no idea what made me
think otherwise back then, sorry for the noise.
The bug was introduced by commit 95be58df74 ("firmware: dmi_scan: Use
full dmi version for SMBIOS3") which made it into kernel v4.1. I'm
afraid the two commits I mentioned in the log message are just plain
wrong :( Only kernel branches v4.1 to v4.3 need this fix.
