It looks like it would only work for the first cpuid leaf, but we'll
need more than that. And the array makes it easier to allocate
attributes for sysfs en masse.

I guess it doesn't really matter if we use unions unless these bits need
to be exported to other parts of the kernel? But *that* is hardly a good
idea. What do you think?
