acpi: fix _OSI string setup regression

commit b0ed7a91(ACPICA/ACPI: Add new host interfaces for _OSI suppor)
introduced a regression that _OSI string setup fails.

There are 2 paths to setup _OSI string.

DMI:
acpi_dmi_osi_linux -> set_osi_linux -> acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI
string to osi_setup_string

Boot command line:
acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI string to osi_setup_string

Later, acpi_osi_setup_late will be called to handle osi_setup_string.
If _OSI string is "Linux" or "!Linux", then the call path is,

acpi_osi_setup_late -> acpi_cmdline_osi_linux -> set_osi_linux ->
acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI string to osi_setup_string

This actually never installs _OSI string(acpi_install_interface not
called), but just copy the _OSI string to osi_setup_string.

This patch fixes the regression.
