When vendor-specific i386 initialization code is unavailable
the kernel falls back to a default CPU model name. Make that
model name reflect the CPU family instead of an internal vendor
index.
Tested on Pentium II (family 6 model 5).
/proc/cpuinfo before:
model name : ff/05
after:
model name : 06/05
