New SMBIOS3 spec adds additional field for versioning - docrev.
The docrev identifies the revision of a specification implemented in
the table structures, so display SMBIOS version > 3 in format,
like: 3.22.1

It's not affect on other part of code because version number
is analyzed using comparing, and it's obvious that 0x000208 is less
than 0x030201 for example.

I don't think the spec forbids passing a 3.0+ table using the legacy
32-bit entry point, in which case the packing of the version could
potentially become a problem.

I don't care deeply about the docrev, so I think we could drop this
patch, but if others feel differently, could we at least pack the
version in a consistent manner (i.e., always account for docrev, and
set it to 0 if the 32-bit entry point is used?)

If others are OK, I can add docrev for 32 bit 3+ versions.
