Surelly I will not maintain the DMI table! It is already difficult to maintain the database of CPU. The newer CPUs have name stored directly in CPU and no more in kernel :-(
( This is a call for help: how to write a table CPU - CONFIG_SYMBOL ? Now I use Vendor/Name/Family/Stepping/, but maybe with Vendor + flags (CPUID flags) the result will be more correct?
Other suggestions?
