`CPU.GetCPUBrandString()` causes Cosmos CPU Exception despite `CPU.CanReadCPUID()` being a non-zero value

[jvyden]

Area of Cosmos - What area of Cosmos are we dealing with?

Cosmos' implementation of CPUID

Expected Behaviour - What do you think that should happen?

Cosmos returns the correct CPU brand string when invoking CPU.GetCPUBrandString().

Actual Behaviour - What unexpectedly happens?

A CPU Exception occurs, with an invalid opcode:

Reproduction - How did you get this error to appear?

A simple usage of the CPU brand function in BeforeRun, checking CanReadCPUID beforehand:

        Console.WriteLine("  Gathering SystemInformation");
        this._information = new SystemInformation
        {
            CPUVendor = CPU.GetCPUVendorName(),
            MemoryCountMegabytes = CPU.GetAmountOfRAM(),
        };

        Console.Write("  Checking if we can read CPUID... ");
        int canReadCpuIdResult = CPU.CanReadCPUID();
        bool canReadCpuId = canReadCpuIdResult != 0;
        Console.Write(canReadCpuId ? "Yes!" : "No.");
        Console.Write($" Result was {canReadCpuIdResult}.\n");

        if (canReadCpuId)
        {
            this._information.CPUBrand = CPU.GetCPUBrandString();
            this._information.EstimatedCycleSpeed = CPU.GetCPUCycleSpeed();
        }
        else
        {
            this._information.CPUBrand = "Unknown";
            this._information.EstimatedCycleSpeed = -1;
        }

Additional notes

• This was previously discussed in Discord: https://discord.com/channels/833970409337913344/1120584024730124418
• I checked for similar issues, coming across #2103 but noting that the issue was resolved over a year ago.
• This doesn't seem to be an emulator/VM bug, as I reproduced the issue on a Dell Latitude E5430.

Still happens on lastest devkit!
