I just received a replacement CPU for my Ryzen 5 1600 which I sent back with an RMA code because it had idle crashes and instant reboots in Linux.
Viewing the logs in my new CPU I get the following bug:
| [ | 0.750348] [Firmware Bug]: ACPI MWAIT C-state 0x0 not supported by HW (0x0) |

I have some of the logs from when I got the hardware errors with my old CPU and in none of them I had those bugs. The CPU I sent back was made in the 38th week of 2017 but the replacement I received is from the 33th. So my questions are:
1. What are those bugs?
2. Why wasn't I getting them with my first CPU?
3. Can it be a problem because my replacement CPU was produced earlier than the one I sent back?
I want to point out that I first updated the BIOS to the newest version and also the kernel I use now is newer so to be better compatible with Ryzen.
