SMBIOS table pass-through is useful in supporting vendor/OEM specific functionality in HVM guests. There are numerous OEM software packages and drivers that depend on having certain SMBIOS tables surfaced in a guest for their proper functioning. This also includes drivers and software needed for device pass-through. This series of patches introduces support for SMBIOS pass-through in the hvmloader. Both DMTF defined and OEM specific table pass-through is supported.
1: changes to hvm_info_table.h
2: utility support routines to validate input SMBIOS tables
3: core functionality to load passed in SMBIOS tables
