Description
I've always had TSX-FA on Windows 10 since I'm on the latest microcode and OS update. Due to this, TSX is disabled by default in RPCS3. However, once I switched to Windows 11, the log shows that I have TSX and not TSX-FA, which leads to TSX being enabled by default. I ran the SPU test and the results look very close to TSX-FA on Windows 10.

We need to verify if Windows has changed the way they advertise the existence of TSX-FA. Also, need some inputs on how to test conclusively whether I have TSX or TSX-FA on my PC. Previously, I would simply boot RPCS3 to check.
