RE: Intel CPU CVE Issue: CVE-2022-21166/CVE-2022-21125/CVE-2022-21123

It is the situation that the whole FreeBSD community facing: the lack of supporting from vendors, not only for Intel.
Many new HW features, like modern standby, Hybrid CPU, new chipsets drivers, need be done by vendors but FreeBSD community need do it.

FreeBSD community need influence HW vendors, like Intel, AMD, NV, Realtek, etc, to support FreeBSD kernel.
