The dmidecode Makefile uses $(shell uname -m) to detect architecture, which
returns the build host's arch (x86_64) during cross-compilation. This causes
x86-only utilities (biosdecode, vpddecode, ownership) to be incorrectly built
and installed on ARM targets.

On NVIDIA Tegra234, running biosdecode triggers a flood of CBB fabric
DECODE_ERR interrupts (23,568+ printk messages dropped) by scanning
non-existent x86 BIOS memory at 0xF0000-0xFFFFF.

Fix by passing TARGET_ARCH to the Makefile's MACHINE variable, so it correctly
detects the target architecture and skips x86-only tools on ARM builds.
