Modeule is not two cores but single core.
Two int cores can be used to execute 1 thread (its speculative multithreading design).
Module will be seen to OS as a single core.

Incorrect. The module has 2 integer cores.
The two cores will execute 2 threads, not one.
The OS will not ever see the module, the OS will only see the cores.

Look at Bulldozer patent: 20090172362(026).
Processor dispath module can be configured to execute only a single
thread and dispath integer instructions associated with the thread to
both integer cores so OS will see one module as one core.
