Bruce, Please apply to yocto/base. Fixes a boot issue for a tunnel creek development board.
-- commit 2b934c6236983392d01bef22e43af3051cac16f5 If dmi_get_system_info() returns NULL, pch_phub_probe() will dereferencea a zero pointer. This oops was observed on an Atom based board which has no BIOS, but a bootloder which doesn't privde DMI data.
