[Bug 119940] /proc/cpuinfo reports incorrect information for Via C3

[Rolf Leggewie]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.15

The output of "cat /proc/cpuinfo" is wrong

processor       : 0
vendor_id       : CentaurHauls
cpu family      : 6
model           : 6
model name      : VIA Samuel
stepping        : 2
cpu MHz         : 400.179
[...]

My CPU has 600 MHz.  And while cpu frequency scaling was still working
(c.f. bug 45747) I always saw the true frequency to be underreported by
33%.  It was 400/200 MHz when the machine was really running at 600/400
MHz.

** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
