Descripción

Hi, my i5-7500 servers report they're vulnerable to GDS, even though I have the latest microcode, which Intel states should make them unaffected. Details:

```shell
root@pmc2:~# grep -r Vulnerable /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/
/sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/gather_data_sampling:Vulnerable

root@pmc2:~# dmesg | grep -E 'i5-7500|GDS|microcode'

Screenshot from the [related Intel documentation](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/topic-technology/software-security-guidance/processors-affected-consolidated-product-cpu-model.html#tab-blade-1-1) where it mentions I shouldn't be affected with firmware f8:

Am I doing something wrong, or should I just wait for a microcode update, or this processor won't receive any microcode upgrades and we should replace it? Thank you.
