Here is the next iteration, based on your suggestions.  It also caches
the result of the first acpi_get_sysname() call, since this really
shouldn't change while the machine is running.

This is against the linux-ia64-2.5 bk tree.

It does include the sn2 platform detection in acpi_get_sysname(), which
may be duplicated in jbarnes' 2.5 patch.
