I found this
linux-2.6.32-696.1.1.el6/arch/x86/kernel/setup.c
796 if ((boot_cpu_data.x86_vendor == X86_VENDOR_INTEL) &&
797 ((boot_cpu_data.x86 == 6))) {
798 switch (boot_cpu_data.x86_model) {
799 case 94: /* Skylake-S */
800 case 86: /* Broadwell-DE SoC */
801 case 85: /* Purley */
802 case 79: /* Broadwell-EP and EX */
803 case 78: /* Skylake-Y */
804 case 77: /* Atom Avoton */
805 case 71: /* Broadwell-H */
806 case 70: /* Crystal Well */
807 break;
808 default:
809 if (boot_cpu_data.x86_model > 63) {
810 printk(KERN_CRIT
811 "Detected CPU family %d model %d\n",
812 boot_cpu_data.x86,
813 boot_cpu_data.x86_model);
814 mark_hardware_unsupported("Intel CPU model");
815 }
816 break;
817 }
818 }
not sure if "case 94: /* Skylake-S */" means support for Intel Core i7-6700 Quad-Core Skylake ...
