On a high core count, multi-socket, machine I see almost 10K lines of output from this. If you add other things it will become a bit of a jumble to parse.
Perhaps the module name "archinfo" is fine, but each separate thing it shows should get its own file. Starting with:
/sys/kernel/debug/x86/gdtinfo
for the current output?
