PATCH 1/1 Terminate i386 local APIC DMI exception table

[sending directly to Linus because Andrew said he is away]

The i386 local APIC DMI exception table was not 0 terminated. The dmi parser would walk into random .data space. Found during code review, not known to cause problems, but should be still fixed. I checked all other DMI tables and they seemed to be ok.
