Is there a corresponding patch for the AMD > STIBP bit (CPUID 0x80000008_EBX[15]) that is in KVM? This Intel STIBP patch is one that many distros have carried downstream since the flaw came to light. I've not seen any equiv patch for AMD STIBP bit, in either QMEU or libvirt, so guess that's a gap that needs filling.
