VIA C3 CPU not recognized

Hello,

5.3-STABLE refuses to recognize my VIA C3 CPU, it panics immediately
after the loader with

CPU class not configured

Last known working kernel is from Sun Nov  7 16:27:23 CET 2004, it
recognizes the CPU as

CPU: VIA C3 Samuel 2 (601.37-MHz 686-class CPU)
  Origin = "CentaurHauls"  Id = 0x673  Stepping = 3
  Features=0x803035<FPU,DE,TSC,MSR,MTRR,PGE,MMX>

The new kernel says it's an "unknown class" CPU.  I haven't changed my
kernel config since I built the old kernel, so maybe I have overlooked
some new option for VIA CPUs, but I couldn't find a change at first
glance.

Any ideas?

thanks,
le
