Note, your subject lines could use a bit better work.  How about:
	cpuinfo: implement sysfs nodes for x86

That makes it easier to see/sort in my inbox.  Same for patch 1.

Anyway, I'd really like to see this for another cpu arch at the same
time, just to verify you really have the correct api/interface here.
Can you do it for arm64 or something else as well?

thanks,

True, I will update them accordingly when I repost the next time.

Sure, I will look into what devices are available for me and implement
another arch.
