I think the preferred way to do this is just to create a /proc/cpuinfo
file within the root file system.  It's impossible for qemu to know
which file is /proc/cpuinfo because you can technically mount procfs
anywhere.

Binary package hint: qemu-kvm

qemu should emulate /proc/cpuinfo contents as some apps parse it to find ou=
t which CPU they are running on.
