The commit: 3f235279828c ("x86/cpu: Restore AMD's DE_CFG MSR after resume") renamed the MSR_F10H_DECFG_LFENCE_SERIALIZE macro to MSR_AMD64_DE_CFG_LFENCE_SERIALIZE. The fix changed MSR_F10H_DECFG_LFENCE_SERIALIZE to MSR_AMD64_DE_CFG_LFENCE_SERIALIZE_BIT in the init_amd() function, but should have used MSR_AMD64_DE_CFG_LFENCE_SERIALIZE. This causes a discrepancy in the LFENCE serialization check in the init_amd() function.
This causes a ~16% sysbench memory regression, when running: sysbench --test=memory run

Odd line-wrapping :(
And please use the proper way to reference SHA1 as documented in the kernel documentation.
And why is this only needed in 4.14.y? What about Linus's tree and all of the other stable trees?
Please get this fixed in Linus's tree first and then we can take a backport.
thanks,
