Bug #580: smbios table only recorded data for one slot
https://ticket.coreboot.org/issues/580

* Author: Keith Hui
* Status: New
* Priority: Normal
* Category: coreboot common code
* Start date: 2025-03-09
* Affected hardware: asus/p8z77-v_le_plus
----------------------------------------
I entered smbios slot description for 5 slots in devicetree (via an overridetree.cb), but after booting only the last slot is recorded in the data table.
