[Bug 1701720] [NEW] lshw output is missing serial numbers for disks

[Jason Hobbs]

Public bug reported:

Here's the lshw xml output for my node:
https://pastebin.com/pL0A1Y3T

Some disks, for example, /dev/sdd, don't have a serial number listed.

However, the serial number for the disk is available via udevadm:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/24990967/

So, it seems like lshw should be able to include it too.

ubuntu 16.04
lshw 02.17-1.1ubuntu3.2
