Subject: [PATCH 08/21] aws: Detect AWS from dmidecode information.
Move the AWS detection out from under Xen. AWS runs on KVM and
baremetal these days. The dmidecode information for KVM and baremetal
is a little bit different so we also need to adjust the test for that
case.
Typical SMBIOS info for Xen:
BIOS Information
Vendor: Xen
Version: 4.2.amazon
Typical SMBIOS info for KVM and baremetal:
BIOS Information
Vendor: Amazon EC2
Version: 1.0
Thanks: Vitaly Kuznetsov, Jon Masters.
