I did not see any problem with these patches.
My guest setup.
# lscpu |grep -o ssbd
ssbd
[root@rome-vm ~]# uname -r
4.18.0-147.el8.x86_64
[root@rome-vm ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.1 (Ootpa)
# wrmsr 0x48 7
[root@rome-vm ~]# rdmsr 0x48
7
My host os.
# uname -r
4.18.0-193.el8.x86_64
[root@rome images]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.2 Beta (Ootpa)
Also, I only see ssbd feature when add this patch(EPYC-Rome-v2).
Otherwise, I don’t see ssbd feature.
Thanks
