Applied, thanks. It'd be nice if we didn't have to rely on DMI,
especially since enterprise customers often end up running later kernels
- is there any other way to determine that this is safe to load? Could
we just limit it to IBM systems in a server/blade chassis and then check
for the _RTL_ area?
