+From: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>
+Subject: x86/amd: Work around CLFLUSH ordering on older parts
+
+On pre-CLFLUSHOPT AMD CPUs, CLFLUSH is weakely ordered with everything,
+including reads and writes to the address, and LFENCE/SFENCE instructions.
+
+This creates a multitude of problematic corner cases, laid out in the manual.
+Arrange to use MFENCE on both sides of the CLFLUSH to force proper ordering.
+
+This is part of XSA-402.
