x86/CPU/AMD: Disable XSAVES on AMD family 0x17
AMD Erratum 1386 is summarised as: XSAVES Instruction May Fail to Save XMM Registers to the Provided State Save Area This piece of accidental chronomancy causes the %xmm registers to occasionally reset back to an older value. Ignore the XSAVES feature on all AMD Zen1/2 hardware. The XSAVEC instruction (which works fine) is equivalent on affected parts. [ bp: Typos, move it into the F17h-specific function. ] Reported-by: Tavis Ormandy <taviso@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230307174643.1240184-1-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com
