Subject: [PATCH 1/1] dmidecode: Hide irrelevant fixup message

Only display the message about type 34 length fixup if the entry in
question is going to be displayed. Otherwise it's only confusing.

This fixes bug #109024:
http://savannah.nongnu.org/support/?109024

Fixes: 3f70b3515d91 ("dmidecode: Fix up invalid DMI type 34 structure length")
