    Pull x86 platform driver updates from Andy Shevchenko:
     "Here is the collected material against Platform Drivers x86 subsystem.
      It's rather bit busy cycle for PDx86, mostly due to Dell SMBIOS driver
      activity
    
      For this cycle we have quite an update for the Dell SMBIOS driver
      including WMI work to provide an interface for SMBIOS tokens via sysfs
      and WMI support for 2017+ Dell laptop models. SMM dispatcher code is
      split into a separate driver followed by a new WMI dispatcher. The
      latter provides a character device interface to user space.
    
      The git history also contains a merge of immutable branch from Wolfram
      Sang in order to apply a dependent fix to the Intel CherryTrail
      Battery Management driver.
    
      Other Intel drivers got a lot of cleanups. The Turbo Boost Max 3.0
      support is added for Intel Skylake.
    
      Peaq WMI hotkeys driver gets its own maintainer and white list of
      supported models.
    
      Silead DMI is expanded to support few additional platforms.
    
      Tablet mode via GMMS ACPI method is added to support some ThinkPad
      tablets.
