Hi Suravee! 

This bug has been bothering Ryzen users for some while now and work-arounds
adding various linux boot parameters have had patchy success. It's good to see
an informed and more forensic approach. Bravo!

I've been exercising your RFCv3 patch over the last few days (AMD Ryzen 5
2400G, Asus Prime B350-Plus, Ubuntu 20.10, Linux 5.8.0-43). With the original
20 msec delay I still get:

Increasing the delay to msleep(40) gives:

If Linus is taking up the patch (hurrah), is 40 msec too large over the Ryzen
range? I would quite like the good Ubuntu people to merge your patch into their
current and upcoming distributions (I think SuSE are already doing so) but
don't want to jump-the-gun or tread-on-any-toes :-).

Over the next few days, I'll try my 2400G on delays between 20 and 40 msec and
maybe even test the patch on the still rather unstable Ubuntu 21.04. Any
guidance
much appreciated and, once again, many thanks.

David
