x86: Fix up silly i1586 boot message.
Trying to boot a 64-bit kernel on a 32bit Pentium 4 gets you an amusing message along the lines of. "you need an x86-64, but you only have an i1586" due to the P4 being family F. Munge it to be 686. Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
