[PATCH 14/14] smbios: Correct error handling when writing tables

[Simon Glass]

Since write_smbios_table() returns an address, we cannot use it to
return and error number. Also, failing on sysinfo_detect() breaks
existing boards, e.g. chromebook_link

Correct this by logging and swallowing the error.
