[PATCH] fix: dmi_check_system

Browse Source 
Background:

	1) dmi_check_system() returns the count of the number of
	   matches.  Zero thus means no matches.
	2) A match callback can return nonzero to stop the match
	   checking.

Bug: The count is incremented after we check for the nonzero return value,
so it does not reflect the actual count.  We could say this is intended,
for some dumb reason, except that it means that a match on the first check
returns zero--no matches--if the callback returns nonzero.

Attached patch implements the count before calling the callback and thus
before potentially short-circuiting.
