[PATCH 3/5] DMI: only ioremap stuff we actually need

[Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com>]

dmi_scan_machine() tries to ioremap 0x10000 (64K) bytes, even though
it only looks at the first 32 bytes or so.  If the SMBIOS table is
near the end of a memory region, the ioremap() may fail when it
shouldn't.

This is in the efi_enabled path, so it really only affects ia64 at
the moment.
