[syslinux] [PATCH 1/1] : Adding long mode support to dmi

[Erwan Velu]

 From : Erwan Velu <erwan.velu at free.fr>

This patch add the ability to read the long-mode flag from the processor.
This helps you to know if the processor is x86_64 capable or not.
So "dmi->processor.cpu_flags.lm " is a boolean that represent the "Long 
Mode" cpu flag.

It also add two bugfix :
- some cpu flags were shifted due to some "null" messages in the structure
- the "BB" cpu type from Intel were not supported

This new code comes mainly from the Linux kernel.
Greetings are for those who wrote it.

Testing and feedback are welcome.
