[issue12326] Linux 3: code should avoid using sys.platform == 'linux2'

[Boštjan Mejak]

I have a better idea... Why don't we change the "linux2" string into just "linux". That way we will never run into this kind of issue, even in the future when Linux kernel version 4 is going to exist. Any thoughts on this?
