These changes should be dropped. We already have this model covered and
regenerating the data files for existing CPUs just causes unnecessary
and often unrelated changes.
These updated data files are required because libvirt will now try to
use the better matching EPYC-Rome model for Ryzen 9 tests.
So leaving them out, will break tests. Just changing the model to
EPYC-Rome in the Ryzen 9 tests files, will also breaks tests. Hence I
re-ran the gather/parse on a Ryzen 9 system to get the updated cpuid
information.

While we don't have a special model Ryzen 9, we still want to have it
covered in the test suit to check we assign the appropriate model to it.
Got it.
