Dear Kernel Maintainers,

I have observed, that on our SBC's the GPU turbo mode doesn't work. This happens only to those with embedded Arrandale (1288 FCBGA package) standard voltage (35W) CPU's. These CPU's do not have there an letter whereas the Mobile CPU has an M. So there seems to be a need to update the intel_ips.c in order to recognize the CPU's with  brand strings 'Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU         610  @ 2.53GHz' and  'Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU         520  @ 2.40GHz'. I have prepared therefor following patch:

Yep, that's fine with me, thanks for the patch!

Are these the only two embedded Arrandales? Is there really no MSR that 
gives you the voltage range?

AFAIK this is the same method the Windows driver uses, so I don't think
so.

Fortunately the on-die integration in Sandy Bridge makes all this
unnecessary, so I don't expect you'll have to continually add entries
to this list over time.
