Hi Luke,

Thank you for the new version, much better.

With the new helper in this form you are pretty much re-inventing
dmi_check_system().

So IMHO you should just replace use_hid_led_matches[] with
a dmi_system_id array and simplify asus_use_hid_led() to just
a single "dmi_check_system(asus_use_hid_led_dmi_ids)" call.

Using dmi_system_id-s also allows you to specify if the string
which is being matched should be matched against DMI_PRODUCT_FAMILY
or DMI_BOARD_NAME. Note the normal DMI_MATCH() macro to fill in
dmi_system_id array entries does non exact matching using strstr()
just like you do above.

Note you need to terminate the dmi_system_id array with an empty
{} entry.
