I do have access to a system with an EPYC 7513, which does have Shadow
Stack support (I can see 'shstk' in the "Flags" section of lscpu with
this series). As far as I understand it, AMD only added Shadow Stack
with Zen 3; my regular AMD test system is Zen 2 (probably should look at
procurring a Zen 3 or Zen 4 one at some point).
I applied this series on top of 6.0 and reverted this change then booted
it on that system. After building the selftest (which did require
'make headers_install' and a small addition to make it build beyond
that, see below), I ran it and this was the result. I am not sure if
that is expected or not but the other results seem promising for
dropping this patch.

I am happy to provide any information that would be useful for exploring
this failure and test further iterations of this series as necessary.
Cheers,
Nathan
