Gigabyte GA-MA69VM-S2 can't do 64bit DMA either.  It's yet unknown
whether recent BIOS fixes the problem.  Blacklist regardless of BIOS
revisions for now.

Sandor Bodo-Merle reported and provided the initial patch for this
issue.

Sandor, sorry that I ended up redoing this series but without proper
dmi_get_date() it was too ugly.  Your second patch was fine but it
just didn't look right with the manual date parsing callback.

Thanks.
