[PATCH 1/5] dmi: dmicheck: ensure mmap'd SMBIOS data is readable before accessing it

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>

We need to check we don't get SIGSEGV or SIGBUS errors when reading
the mmap'd SMBIOS data before we try and access it. Use the fwts_safe_memread
check on the data to sanity check these mappings.
