Should we make dmi_check_system case insensitive?

Hi,

I have a request to add entry for "LifeBook B Series" to lifebook driver to
accomodate lifebook B2545, however we already have entry for "LIFEBOOK B
Series" (used by some other model) which is not working. Would anyone
be opposed making dmi_check_system() ignore string case? We would have to
malloc/copy both strings and lowercase them before doing stsstr...
