FYI, I heard from someone offlist that they can reproduce with the
latest microcode available on this cpu:

cpu family  : 23
model       : 17
model name  : AMD Ryzen 3 2200G with Radeon Vega Graphics
stepping    : 0
microcode   : 0x8101016

It seems likely many zen1 systems are affected without any microcode
patch, which seems not great to me.

I guess it would be nice if AMD could provide a list of devices they're
not going to provide a patch for...
