MPX is dead, but memory protection keys are a distinct feature and work fine (with some limitations); I haven't seen anything about them being removed at all and Intel doesn't note them in their deprecated features list. AMD even added support for them in Zen3.

Oh, TIL. I was under the impression they were both removed , and didn't know AMD had it either.
