You can only say

	bits 5:2 and bits 63:10 are reserved since AMD doens't support IBT.

bits 9:6 are reserved regardless of the support of IBT.

The checks against reserved bits are common for AMD and Intel:

1. if SHSTK is supported, bit1:0 are not reserved.
2. if IBT is supported, bit5:2 and bit63:10 are not reserved
3. bit9:6 are always reserved.

There is nothing specific to Intel.

If that's the case, better to move it to patch 16, where the change
can be justified. And PL3_SSP should be removed anyway. and then
"msr_index != MSR_IA32_PL3_SSP" check in the below code snippet in
patch 16 can go away.

+		/*
+		 * Write to the base SSP MSRs should happen ahead of toggling
+		 * of IA32_S_CET.SH_STK_EN bit.
+		 */
+		if (msr_index != MSR_IA32_PL3_SSP && data) {
+			vmx_disable_write_intercept_sss_msr(vcpu);
+			wrmsrl(msr_index, data);
+		}

Yes.
