Also if the chip shows the batch and year could this also mean that steam roller is already in production?

No, they weren't looking at the correct numbers. That 2011 number is the copyright date for the AMD name and logo.
A different set of numbers represent the manufacturing week and year. As I recall, on their processors, it would have been the 29th week of 2012.
Steamroller is probably getting taped out, pre-production samples being made, but by no means ready for mass market.
