Well, It was always proving full set of the info about CPU, like here:
(same board, different OS booted)
Newer kernel, what is important - full set of cpu features, and
hardware&revision.

LibreELEC:~ # cat /proc/cpuinfo | tail -13

LibreELEC:~ # uname -a

complains I had from https://github.com/WiringPi
Library couldn't detect correctly hw.
While I can understand missing info about serial number, maybe hw
revision - moved somewhere else, but missing *part* of CPU features and
model name ??? that's completely incomprehensible.

Good to know, but still I couldnt find a hw revision anywhere there.
(obviously dmidecode is not working as well, rbpi is not providing DMI
information)
