I think some of you guys are completely off your rockers here. The rational thing to do eith problems like this is to find a work around that solves the issue at hand globally and yhen work on a fix for the exceptions. Im sure that if AMD and even Intel CPUs are found to be free of this problem code will be added to revert operation.
As for AMD and Ryzen the latest kernel from RedhatRawhide wouldnt even boot on my Ryzen mobile systrm. I have no idea why but it could be due to this work or something else. Mind you couldnt even bring the kernel up in a VM.
At this point i wouldnt be surprised if Linus stops with the RC releases and takes the kernel back into development mode for a few weeks. After all the work around is a major hack that will need to be tested.
