Yes, this laptop is much happier now! I'm surprised as I was using the
patch on an AMD build box before it was even committed with only a cgd

cpu0: "Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8665U CPU @ 1.90GHz"
cpu0: features1 0x7ffafbff<TM2,SSSE3,SDBG,FMA,CX16,xTPR,PDCM,PCID,SSE41,SSE42>
cpu0: features1 0x7ffafbff<X2APIC,MOVBE,POPCNT,DEADLINE,AES,XSAVE,OSXSAVE,AVX>
