Correct output with previous kernels:

lightside:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
cpu family : 6
model : 6x86MX 2.5x Core/Bus Clock
vendor_id : CyrixInstead
stepping : 0 rev 4
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
sep_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 1
wp : yes
flags : fpu de tsc msr cx8 pge cmov mmx
bogomips : 166.71

Incorrect output with kernel 2.1.103:

lightside:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
cpu family : 6
model : Cx486SLC
vendor_id : CyrixInstead
stepping : unknown
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
sep_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 1
wp : yes
flags : fpu de msr cx8 pge cmov mmx
bogomips : 166.71

Btw, I like seeing the f00f_bug: no.. makes me feel safer when I see it
has appropiately taken care of.
