but second of all, the core2 cpus are dual core so.. .what does it bring you at all?

When there is only one cpu (or UP), the go backwards issue doesn't exist,

it does exist for single-socket dual core already. And core2 is dual core...

so
don't use cpuid here for UP. Another function init_amd already does so.

not anymore.. that got fixed very recently...
(but you are right; on AMD the speculation is even bigger so there even on single core you need cpuid)
