kernel: config check: remove DMIID option
Metadata
Current evaluation
Fixed by merged PR snapcore/snapcraft#1319, commit 1dc35f17e ("kernel plugin: do not warn about DMIID in config check"). The kernel plugin stopped warning when CONFIG_DMIID is absent, since non-EFI targets like armhf lack it. Maintainer closed the LP bug pointing at that PR.
Resolution: closed resolved
Reason: The sole comment on the bug links PR #1319, which was merged as commit 1dc35f17e removing the DMIID config-check warning from the kernel plugin; the launchpad bug was then closed by ~sergiusens.

Issue body
The DMIID config option is only present if a DMI EFI table is present, and since some ubuntu core targets (e.g. armhf) don't support EFI, it's better to stop warning about its absence.
