x86: Fix oops in identify_cpu() on CPUs without CPUID
Kernel is broken for x86 CPUs without CPUID since 2.6.28. It
crashes with NULL pointer dereference in identify_cpu():
766 generic_identify(c);
767
768--> if (this_cpu->c_identify)
769 this_cpu->c_identify(c);
this_cpu is NULL. This is because it's only initialized in
get_cpu_vendor() function, which is not called if the CPU has
no CPUID instruction.
