I think i was a bit quick/excited about getting this info in there..Tested on my 2 machines here (both running 2.6.24 though) without issues.. Will have to look into it further (after taking your advice) and rework this patch.

Can i get an example output or 'cpuinfo' on an embedded device (if you have one available) so i can see what im looking for.
