Does an update to the Kernel, 4.9.77 and 4.14.14 need to be made to

We even need a patch for GCC which will be in GCC 8 and 7.3.
For master we should backport it to GCC 5.5, but what do we want to do
with 17.01 and 15.05 ?
I'll speak only of CC - there is no microcode updater in it at all,
so while 3.18 contains partial patches and GCC 4.8 is unlikely to get
fixed, we should add this facility into it anyway.
The AMD microcoded updater needs at least kernel 4.15, 4.14.13, 4.9.76,
4.4.111 which we already have.
That's only for the fam17h (Zen) CPUs, earlier CPU types should work
with earlier kernels, and this can likely be backported into 3.18. (I
don't have a Zen-based box to test, hands up whoever has one.)

I do have an R5 1600, but can't test until Monday night
Great, I'll do the updated microcode package for AMD until then, thanks.,
