5.5.2.13 IF Sequential Count MRS (IF_SEQCOUNT_MSR)
IF SEQCOUNT MSR is a read only MSR containing the number of sequential instructions executed since the last change of
flow. This is useful when the CPU is halted, since it helps determine the instructions executed since the last record of the
BTM stream.

Bit Name Description
63:24 RSVD Reserved.
23:16 ID_SPEC_VLD Valid Instruction Decode Speculative. ID speculative return stack entries that are
valid. The lease significant entry is the next to be popped from the stack. (Default = 0)
15:8 IF_SPEC_VLD Valid Instruction Fetch Speculative. IF speculative return stack entries that are valid.
The least significant entry is the next to be popped from the stack. (Default = 0)
7:0 NONSPEC_VLD Valid Non-Speculative. Non-speculative return stack entries that are valid. The least
significant entry the next to be popped from the stack. (Default = 0)
