platform/x86: dell-wmi: Fix driver interface version query
When I converted dell-wmi to the new bus infrastructure, I left the call to dell_wmi_check_descriptor_buffer() in dell_wmi_init(). This could cause two problems: - An error message when loading the driver on a system without dell-wmi. We'd try to read the event descriptor even if the WMI GUID wasn't there. - A possible race if dell-wmi was loaded manually before wmi was fully initialized. Fix it by moving the call to the probe function where it belongs.
