yes, but you confuse cause and effect, guess from where the kernel
output is coming and what you see in /proc/cpuid is just a tiny part of
it, just look at the output of the "cpuid" command and compare it with
/proc/cpuinfo

nobody in binary software digs around in /proc when there are *OPCODES*
/proc/cpuid is for you shell scripts

why didn't you just read and trying to understand
