[PATCH ] arm64: cpuinfo: Add "model name" in /proc/cpuinfo for 64bit tasks also

Removed restriction of displaying model name for 32 bit tasks only.
Because of this Processor details were not displayed in
"System setting -> Details" in Ubuntu model name display is generic
and can be printed for 64 bit also.

model name : ARMv8 Processor rev X (v8l)
