[Impact]
A Dell Alienware system reports some error messages in dmesg after booting up:
1. dell_wmi_sysman: Unable to run on non-Dell system
2. dell_smbios: Unable to run on non-Dell system

[Fix]
Applying the following patch from linux-next fixes the issue:
a561509b4187 platform/x86: dell-sysman: add support for alienware products

[Test Plan]
1. Boot to Ubuntu OS
2. Launch $ sudo dmesg
3. Check if the error messages are gone

[Where problems could occur]
May cause regression
