Please do not use "Carrizo" in any user-visible text because the vendors
and their marketing departments naming are confusing us to hell already.
Use F15h, models 0x60-0x6F (I believe CZ is this range but I'm not sure
myself anymore either) so that people *actually* can know what kind of
CPU it is by looking at /proc/cpuinfo.
