Subject[patch 16/24] Altix snsc: duplicate kobject fix
-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Greg Howard <ghoward@sgi.com>

Fix Altix system controller (snsc) device names to include the slot number
of the blade whose associated system controller is the target of the device
interface. Including the slot number avoids a problem we're currently
having where slots within the same enclosure are attempting to create
multiple kobjects with identical names.
