Is there some source of data that we could use to populate those entries?

From the output above:
  model_version: 2.1 (pvr 004a 0201)

The model_revision number is 2.1 and pvr 004a 0201 is the model_version number. There are no info about model_number, bogomips, cache, and other therefore I am thinking of removing these entries. Let me know if you have any issue with this.

Actually there is a model_number, it just does not show when running in KVM. So yes we can also populate model_number.
