3.13.11-ckt33 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange at redhat.com>

commit ff4319dc7cd58c92b389960e375038335d157a60 upstream.

The dmi_ver wasn't updated correctly before the dmi_decode method run
to save the uuid.

That resulted in "dmidecode -s system-uuid" and
/sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid disagreeing. The latter was buggy and
this fixes it.

Reported-by: Federico Simoncelli <fsimonce at redhat.com>
Fixes: 9f9c9cbb6057 ("drivers/firmware/dmi_scan.c: fetch dmi version from SMBIOS if it exists")
Fixes: 79bae42d51a5 ("dmi_scan: refactor dmi_scan_machine(), {smbios,dmi}_present()")
