There are multiple variants of the 8930 and from what I can gather the dmesg dump just reports 8930 for all of them.

The base 8930 is Krait 200 based and runs at up to 1.2Ghz. The 8930 AA and AB are Krait 300 based and usually run at up to 1.7Ghz.

That implies it's either an overclocked 8930 or an underclocked 8930 AA/AB or some other variant of 8930 previously not seen.
