Are you sure you did it right?

I saved the mail I sent you before in /tmp/e688.mail.

$ git checkout v4.8.1
Previous HEAD position was e58b634ca001... Merge branch 'tip-microcode-rc1+' into rc1+1
HEAD is now at a7fac751ddba... Linux 4.8.1
$ patch -p1 --dry-run -i /tmp/e688.mail
checking file arch/x86/kernel/amd_nb.c
$ git checkout v4.8.3
Previous HEAD position was a7fac751ddba... Linux 4.8.1
HEAD is now at 1888926ea8d2... Linux 4.8.3
$ patch -p1 --dry-run -i /tmp/e688.mail
checking file arch/x86/kernel/amd_nb.c
$ git checkout v4.8
Previous HEAD position was 1888926ea8d2... Linux 4.8.3
HEAD is now at c8d2bc9bc39e... Linux 4.8
$ patch -p1 --dry-run -i /tmp/e688.mail
checking file arch/x86/kernel/amd_nb.c

Now you only have to remove "--dry-run"

Paste here the error messages when trying to apply it.
