At this point all platforms that use OvmfPkg/SmbiosPlatformDxe in edk2,
namely ArmVirtQemu.dsc and OvmfPkg*.dsc, have been migrated to
SmbiosVersionLib. Therefore SmbiosPlatformDxe itself can forego verifying
QEMU's SMBIOS entry point; if SmbiosVersionLib's validation was
successful, it should just rely on that.
(Note that SmbiosPlatformDxe has a depex on EFI_SMBIOS_PROTOCOL, installed
by SmbiosDxe, containing SmbiosVersionLib, therefore the set/get order of
PcdQemuSmbiosValidated is ensured.)

Locate QEMU SMBIOS data in fw_cfg and install it via the
SMBIOS protocol.
Starting with qemu-2.1, on pc/x86 machines of type >= 2.1, full
SMBIOS tables are generated and inserted into fw_cfg (i.e., no
per-field patching of locally generated structures is required).
Aside from new code to extract a SMBIOS blob from fw_cfg, this
patch utilizes the pre-existing infrastructure (already used by
Xen) to handle final SMBIOS table creation.
