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.

Yeah, we don't have that min microcode gunk with the device_id match so we'll have to do something like we did for TSA. I.e., below.
I'll test it tomorrow to make sure it doesn't do any cat incinerations :-P

No worries. Don't know if you want this for any other stable kernels older than that, but it didn't apply there either :)

Yeah, something even older running Zen5...? Meh, I'll say "no need" and I betcha someone would promptly crawl out of the woodwork, hand'a'raisin'...
:-P
Let's see what actually happens.
