OK I take that back, Intel (and AMD) processors are equally affected
by this.  For a start, the newly added Intel crc32c driver suffers
from exactly the same problem since the instruction used is also
SSE.

According to

	http://softwarecommunity.intel.com/articles/eng/3788.htm

the Intel AES instructions are also SSE so they too will suffer
from this.
