Subject: [016/103] oprofile: Add Support for Intel CPU Family 6 / Model 29

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@...hat.com>

commit bb7ab785ad05a97a2c9ffb3a06547ed39f3133e8 upstream.

This patch adds CPU type detection for dunnington processor (Family 6
/ Model 29) to be identified as core 2 family cpu type (wikipedia
source).

I tested oprofile on Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E7440 reporting itself as
model 29, and it runs without an issue.
