Frankly speaking, it is also a puzzle to me how to get an accurate
exhaustive list of {Family, Model} given an architecture. Anyway, my thought
is "if any models are listed in any intel public document, that information
should be accurate". I myself does not know that SDMs also contains such
kind of info.
Thus, I can ACK your patch now.
