Subject: [PATCH] x86/CPU/AMD: Add RDSEED fix for Zen5
There's an issue with RDSEED's 16-bit and 32-bit register output
variants on Zen5 which return a random value of 0 "at a rate inconsistent
with randomness while incorrectly signaling success (CF=1)". Search the
web for AMD-SB-7055 for more detail.
Add a fix glue which checks microcode revisions.
[ bp: Add microcode revisions checking, rewrite. ]
