The original fix disabled the xsaves feature for zen1/2. The issue has
since been fixed in the cpus microcode and this patch keeps the feature enabled
if the microcode version is recent enough to contain the fix.
The patch had to be altered slightly to apply cleanly on 6.5, but no
changes content-wise.

Tested this on an AMD Epyc 7302P v2.
This patch is intended for the bookworm-6.5 branch.

+Subject: [PATCH] x86/CPU/AMD: Improve the erratum 1386 workaround
+
+Disable XSAVES only on machines which haven't loaded the microcode
+revision containing the erratum fix.
+
+This will come in handy when running archaic OSes as guests. OSes whose
+brilliant programmers thought that CPUID is overrated and one should not
+query it but use features directly, ala shoot first, ask questions
+later... but only if you're alive after the shooting.
