06384573a3 Documentation: syfs-class-firmware-attributes: Lenovo Certificate support
Certificate based authentication is available as an alternative to
password based authentication.

The WMI commands are cryptographically signed using a separate
signing server and will be verified by the BIOS before being
accepted.

This commit details the fields that are needed to support that
implementation. At present the changes are intended for Lenovo
platforms, but have been designed to keep them as flexible as possible
for future implementations from other vendors.

8599a12b1e platform/x86: Update Mario Limonciello's email address in the docs
Various pdx86 docs under Documentation/ABI/testing still use Mario's
old, now defunct, <mario.limonciello@dell.com> address.

Update the docs to point to either the new Dell.Client.Kernel@dell.com
email alias for Dell specific drivers, or to Mario's new @outlook.com
address for other drivers.

e8a60aa740 platform/x86: Introduce support for Systems Management Driver over WMI for Dell Systems
The Dell WMI Systems Management Driver provides a sysfs
interface for systems management to enable BIOS configuration
capability on certain Dell Systems.

This driver allows user to configure Dell systems with a
uniform common interface. To facilitate this, the patch
introduces a generic way for driver to be able to create
configurable BIOS Attributes available in Setup (F2) screen.
