we find that some apps will read cpuinfo when start up,
they need the string as follows:
"Processor : AArch64 Processor rev 0 (aarch64)"

Then thay could load the corresponding libs. But now
arm64 platform's cpuinfo don't has this now, so
we need add this.

I have the same question as Martinez: what are those apps? If they are
64-bit apps, they can always assume AArch64 processor.


Those are 32-bit apps, and those apps are very popular in our country.
