Does this only happen in coreboot + FSP?  Or it also happens in latest UEFI?

Does it only happen in S3 or also S0i3?
How about S4?

I would expect the restore of this register to be the platform 
firmware's responsibility.

I don't know right now if this a BIOS bug, an suspend/resume bug, or how 
wide of an impact it is.

Your fix might make sense for "this single platform", but we don't have 
any evidence it's needed for any other one just yet.

We shouldn't make changes because there "might" be a problem.  We need 
affirmation from testing or an assertion from the BIOS team.
