Subject: [PATCH] x86/CPU/AMD: Fix AMD TLBI Erratum #1718
The processor may fail to invalidate a TLB entry while executing an
INVLPGB/TLBSYNC instruction pair.
Detect the erratum and apply a software workaround when a microcode fix
is not present.
Fixes: 82378c6c2f43 ("x86/mm: Use INVLPGB for kernel TLB flushes")
