Thanks; series pushed.  (Actually, I also split patch 6 into two - the
domain_conf formatting change, vs. qemu using that change; that way, if
we ever add future smbios entries, backporting just the formatting of
those new entries will not drag in API changes; on my radar is adding
support for the block 3 Asset Tag entry.)
