According to libreboot, only fam16 onwards have PSP, so if that's true, no. AFAIK the 9590 is identical to the 8350 other than being clocked higher, so i'm expecting our experience to be the same. Also, are you saying that the sequence of events for you was; - booted with new microcode, and lwp was missing from /proc/cpuinfo - you had instability - you rebuilt with -mno-lwp - stability returned
