The check that tells the two apart

fail→pass·tests/test_linux_odroid_xu3_arm_32.py::TestLinux_Odroid_XU3_arm_32::test_get_cpu_info_from_cpufreq_info

Check file tests/test_linux_odroid_xu3_arm_32.py, taken without changes from the fix and copied onto the older code, so the exact same check runs against both versions.
