It should be noted that this problem only affects users with AMD processors because AMD (unlike ARM and INTEL) are still in denial about SPECTRE's ability to target them.
Yes, they are immune to Meltdown (or so it appears) so they are refusing to do anything to update their drivers until their users start getting whacked by SPECTRE.
Figures.
Meanwhile those of us with ARM or INTEL are patched.
Such is life.
