Ok. I go for cpuid userspace tool then.

I'd still say general files like:
cpu/info/{name,vendor}
make sense, so that if exported by an arch like in cpuinfo, it should show up
in the same file.
Every cpu has a model name and a vendor and cpuid is x86 only.

If there should be need for /sys/devices/cpu/cpu0.. info/feature/name
whatever in the future..., let me know ;)
