It should, but it keeps a few changes. Just want to be sure that what
would be left won't cause issues. If this works, the logic that would
solve Ryzen DMA fixes will be contained into a single point, making
easier to maintain it.

Good to know. It would probably worth to check if this Ryzen
bug occors with all versions of it or with just a subset.
I mean: maybe it is only at the first gen or Ryzen and doesn't
affect Ryzen 2 (or vice versa).

The PCI quirks logic will likely need to detect the PCI ID of
the memory controllers found at the buggy CPUs, in order to enable
the quirk only for the affected ones.

It could be worth talking with AMD people in order to be sure about
the differences at the DMA engine side.

Thanks,
Mauro
