[RFC PATCH 1/2] ARM: kernel: update cpuinfo to print CPU model name

[Ruslan Bilovol]

Currently, reading /proc/cpuinfo provides userspace with CPU ID of
the CPU carrying out the read from the file.
Userspace using this information may decide what module
to load or how to configure some specific (and processor-depended)
settings or so.
However, since really different SoCs can share same ARM core,
this information currently is not so useful.
For example, TI OMAP4460 and OMAP4470 SoCs show the same
information in the /proc/cpuinfo whereas they are different.
The "cpuinfo" file looks like exactly that place, where
This information have to be displayed.

So added new line "CPU name" in the "cpuinfo" output for CPU model name

Example:

/ # cat proc/cpuinfo
processor       : 0
model name      : ARMv7 Processor rev 10 (v7l)
BogoMIPS        : 1590.23
Features        : swp half thumb fastmult vfp edsp thumbee neon vfpv3 tls
CPU implementer : 0x41
CPU name        : OMAP4470 ES1.0 HS
CPU architecture: 7
CPU variant     : 0x2
CPU part        : 0xc09
CPU revision    : 10
[...]
