Thanks @Babu for the clarifications!
I really hope that the qemu patch makes it in v6.0 - then I can better consider picking it up as backport for qemu (already have a bug about that in bug 1921754 - therefore I'm setting the qemu task here as invalid)

The last step I can provide for the kernel bug that this one here is (before the rest of the work is with the kernel Team) is to verify/falsify if that also affects the non-oem linux-generic kernel.
There the latest was 5.4.0.71.74 from focal-proposed and the latest already released one is 5.4.0.70.73.

5.4.0.70.73 - failing
5.4.0.71.74 - failing

So while the almost-released oem kernel based on 5.10 will cover this - the patch should indeed also be backported to linux-generic and all the other flavours - otherwise Windows (and potentially more) will no more be usable as KVM guest on such Chips (threadrippers, but maybe more AMD chips that are not yet known as well)
