actually, AMD EPYC was new in 4.2 GA and changed there already to use +ibpb instead of -IBPB so just a new type is enough

Verify with: 4.2.5.1-0.1.el7ev
Build: rhv-release-4.2.5-3-001.noarch

Steps: 
1. Add host with capabilities:
# virsh -r domcapabilities | grep EPYC
      <model fallback='forbid'>EPYC-IBPB</model>
      <model usable='yes'>EPYC</model>
      <model usable='yes'>EPYC-IBPB</model>
  To cluster AMD EPYC IBPB
2. Start VM on host
VM started and host added 

PASS
