[Bug libc/11640] New: Incorrect x86 CPU family and model check

["hjl dot tools at gmail dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

Glibc trunk, 2.12, 2.11 has

      if (__cpu_features.family == 0x0f)
	{
	  family += extended_family;
	  model += extended_model;
	}
      else if (__cpu_features.family == 0x06)
	{
	  model += extended_model;
	  switch (__cpu_features.model)
...
  __cpu_features.family = family;
  __cpu_features.model = model;

__cpu_features.family and __cpu_features.family are checked
before they are set.  A patch is posted at

http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2010-05/msg00048.html

It should be applied cleanly to trunk and 2.12. 2.11 needs
small changes.
