+    x86: more general identifier for Phoenix BIOS
+    
+    Impact: widen the reach of the low-memory-protect DMI quirk
+    
+    Phoenix BIOSes variously identify their vendor as "Phoenix Technologies,
+    LTD" or "Phoenix Technologies LTD" (without the comma.)
+    
+    This patch makes the identification string in the bad_bios_dmi_table
+    more general (following a suggestion by Ingo Molnar), so that both
+    versions are handled.
+    
+    Again, the patched file compiles cleanly and the patch has been tested
+    successfully on my machine.
