[IA64] Fix get_model_name() for mixed cpu type systems
If a system consists of mixed processor types, kmalloc()
can be called before the per-cpu data page is initialized.
If the slab contains sufficient memory, then kmalloc() works
ok. However, if the slabs are empty, slab calls the memory
allocator. This requires per-cpu data (NODE_DATA()) & the
cpu dies.
Also noted by Russ Anderson who had a very similar patch.
