YMMV but our Ryzen 2600 has been 100% rock solid stable (on 24/7) since my last comment #493 Jan 23, 2019. All we did was the mwait and idle:typical bios tweaks. That has worked for many/most people hitting this bug, as proven by the fact many people comment, say thanks for the tweaks, and never come back.

I strongly suspect that anyone having problems after doing mwait and idle:typical (and maybe rcu_nocbs too) are having a separate problem. Certainly the segfault people are hitting a different bug which should not get convoluted into this bug thread. Our 2600 never exhibited the segfault problem (thankfully!): seems to be more a 1xxx issue.
