[PATCH] x86_64: add support for Intel dual-core detection and displaying

Browse Source 
Appended patch adds the support for Intel dual-core detection and displaying
the core related information in /proc/cpuinfo.  

It adds two new fields "core id" and "cpu cores" to x86 /proc/cpuinfo and the
"core id" field for x86_64("cpu cores" field is already present in x86_64).

Number of processor cores in a die is detected using cpuid(4) and this is
documented in IA-32 Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual (vol 2a)
(http://developer.intel.com/design/pentium4/manuals/index_new.htm#sdm_vol2a)

This patch also adds cpu_core_map similar to cpu_sibling_map.

Slightly hacked by AK.
