[SRU][N,J][PATCH v2 0/1] disable XSAVES workaround

[Bethany Jamison]

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2077321

This patch fixes bug LP#2077321. An older commit (b056346) completely 
disables XSAVES instruction on all AMD ZEN1/2 hardware to avoid a bug
within that instruction (utilizes XSAVEC instruction instead). This 
method of working around this issue is a bit too broad and causes an
issue with migrating QEMU VMs from older kernels that use XSAVES to 
newer kernels with XSAVES disabled. This patch implements a commit
(29ba89f) to improve the workaround. It disables XSAVES only on 
machines that lack a revised piece of microcode that addresses the
XSAVES bug.
