/proc/cpuinfo cpu database?

I have an Athlon 64 running on a 32-bit kernel, and clflush still 
reports 64:

model name      : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3800+
clflush size    : 64

So the four data points we have all indicate that "clflush size" shows 
the processor bit-itude, regardless of the kernel.
