4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jean Delvare <jdelv...@suse.de>
[ Upstream commit 90fe6f8ff00a07641ca893d64f75ca22ce77cca2 ]
The test which ensures that the DMI type 1 structure is long enough
to hold the UUID is off by one. It would fail if the structure is
exactly 24 bytes long, while that's sufficient to hold the UUID.
I don't expect this bug to cause problem in practice because all
implementations I have seen had length 8, 25 or 27 bytes, in line
with the SMBIOS specifications. But let's fix it still.
