I thought TSX was disabled via firmware update for all Haswell machines?

In any case, the fuzzer is triggering the
unchecked MSR access error: WRMSR to 0x689
in intel_pmu_lbr_restore. So either this is a false error and should be
disabled, or else it's a real issue and should be fixed.

Unfortunately the fuzzer can take up to a few days to trigger the message
(it's not easily repeatable) so doing a kernel bisect would take a very
long time.
