[SeaBIOS] [QEMU v5 PATCH 13/18] SMBIOS: Stop including type 20 tables

Fri Apr 11 18:11:53 CEST 2014


Table type 20 (memory device mapped address) is no longer required
as of smbios spec v2.5. Leaving it out completely saves us from having
to figure out how to connect type 17 devices to type 19 memory areas.
