FWIW, I recall the AMD patch was developed on stable/8 and should be safe to merge. You still need have to teach the build system about the new CPUs (that was a different change that I didn't do) but it should work. I personally stopped merging stuff to the stable/8 branch and more recently to the stable/9 branch as I don't run those anymore. In the case of the stable/8 branch I find the ancient version of binutils a real threat/limitation. I would really suggest people move on to at least stable/9 which has all the clang cleanups and should be functionally much better.
