Comment (by tsylla):

 Well, it is not the kernel doing this, it is just reflecting CPUID. There
 are many reasons CPUID is configured to report the strings that it does
 for GX. It is not something you can change at will. Make sure to ask AMD
 about this first (my guess is that they will say "leave as programmed by
 the firmware")
