We cooperate with AMD guys to test the Scrub hardware GPRs against
latest AMD EPYC, we observe the performance of Redis drop ~11% in the
guest (Centos 7.4, 3.10.0-693).

redis(redis_version:3.2.10)

Redis command line:

redis-server > /dev/null 2>&1 &
redis-benchmark -t ping,set,get -d 128 -c 100 -r 1000000 -n 10000000 -q -P 20
redis-benchmark -t ping,set,get -d 1024 -c 100 -r 1000000 -n 10000000 -q -P 20
redis-benchmark -t ping,set,get -d 2048 -c 100 -r 1000000 -n 10000000 -q -P 20
