Why not x86-64-v4?

Zen 2 lacks AVX512BW, AVX512CD, AVX512DQ, AVX512F and AVX512VL, all of which x86-64-v4 requires.

Feature checklist

Features required by each x86-64 level and whether Zen 2 has them. OSFXSR and OSXSAVE are set by the operating system; the table checks the hardware features they depend on.
