What for?
Did you not see this thread?

Yes, I did see the patch, but Andreas replied to Dave's patch attached in v1 saying that he had seen this issue with AMD Athlon on a VIA chipset back in 2006. (https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Yyy6l94G0O2B7Yh1@rhlx01.hs-esslingen.de/) Therefore, Dave's patch is not sufficient.
Dave suggested the use of AMD vendor and family check, but Peter then pointed out that we would also need the Hygon vendor check.
Hence I worked on the v2 which addressed these with the help of X86_BUG_STPCLK so that we can avoid vendor specific checks inside the common acpi code. -- Thanks and Regards, Prateek
