This is a workaround for the Windows kernel wrongly extracting SystemBiosVersion.
Windows kernel extracts various BIOS information at boot-time. The method it use to extract SystemBiosVersion is very hueristic. It is done by nt!CmpGetBiosVersion().
nt!CmpGetBiosVersion() works by scanning all BIOS memory from 0xF0000 to 0xFFFFF in search for a string of the form x.y where x & y are digits. When it finds such a string, it goes a bunch of characters backwards until an unknown character is reached, checks whether the string contains any of "v 0", "v 1", "Rev ", etc... if it does - a match was found. It then continues to find the next matches.
In our case, this lead to a debug-print string "Intel IGD BDSM enabled at 0x%08x, size %lldMB, dev 00:02.0" to be treated as BIOS version (Because of "2.0" at the end, and the "v 0" contained in it).
This can be seen by: * Typing "wmic bios get biosversion" in CMD * Reading "HKLM\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System" "SystemBiosVersion"
Therefore, this commit solves the issue by just modifying "00:02.0" to "00:02:00".
