Subject: [PATCH] cpuinfo: Rectify cpuinfo for IBM Power Systems

'/proc/cpuinfo' file on Power Systems represents online CPU threads,
not physical cores. Also we can dynamically change number of threads.

Previous patch added support to parse device tree and display core
information under CPU nodes.

This patch pulls useful info from cpuinfo file and updates CPU nodes.
  - description : Processor description
  - version : Processor version including subversion
