[PATCH] Make DMI code store chassis type

[Matthew Garrett <mjg59@srcf.ucam.org>]

The previous patch had a typo, so here's a fixed one. This patch stores 
the chassis type of the hardware, making it easier to determine whether 
a piece of hardware from a manufacturer is a laptop. This information is 
not 100% reliable - some vendors insert bogus values, but most of the 
big ones are fairly accurate.
