I'm not aware of anything equivalent for AMD.

IIRC, the binutils thread says Zen6 for these instructions?  I'm still
trying to get access myself.  No ETA yet.

Very tentatively Acked-by: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>

Given that .W is wonky for these instructions, I wouldn't quite so
easily rule out other wonkyness.

Would the test harness pick that up?  Not AFAICT.
