RFDS only affects Atom parts. Vendor/Family/Model matching in the affected
processor table makes Alderlake and Raptorlake P-only parts affected (which
are not affected in reality). This is because the affected hybrid and
E-only parts have the same Family/Model as the unaffected P-only parts.
Match CPU-type as Atom to exclude P-only parts as RFDS affected.
Note, a guest with the same Family/Model as the affected part may not have
leaf 1A enumerated to know its CPU-type, but it should not be a problem as
guest's Family/Model can anyways be inaccurate. Moreover, RFDS_NO or
RFDS_CLEAR enumeration by the VMM decides the affected status of the guest.

=================== ============
-As an exception to this table, Intel Xeon E family parts ALDERLAKE(06_97H) and
-RAPTORLAKE(06_B7H) codenamed Catlow are not affected. They are reported as
-vulnerable in Linux because they share the same family/model with an affected
-part. Unlike their affected counterparts, they do not enumerate RFDS_CLEAR or
-CPUID.HYBRID. This information could be used to distinguish between the
-affected and unaffected parts, but it is deemed not worth adding complexity as
-the reporting is fixed automatically when these parts enumerate RFDS_NO.
