dmi-id: fix for __you_cannot_kmalloc_that_much failure

gcc 3.2 has a hard time coping with the code in dmi_id_init():

drivers/built-in.o(.init.text+0x789e): In function `dmi_id_init':
: undefined reference to `__you_cannot_kmalloc_that_much'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

Moving half of the code to a separate function seems to help.  This is a
no-op for gcc 4.1 which will successfully inline the code anyway.
