[Bug 225811] Re: kernel: fix x86 DMI checks for PCI quirks

A couple of observations here:

- this regression won't affect anyone upgrading from previous Ubuntu releases, because we do have udev rules in place which by default remember the device name mappings once established.
- for the same reason, this fix won't /benefit/ any users who have already installed 8.04, because the "wrong" mapping will already be committed in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.

On balance, I agree that we want this for .1; but we at least need to be
aware that users who installed 8.04 will still be affected by the
reversed device names.
