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 ...
