No (very unlikely).

The AMD and Intel x86_64 chips are quite similar, and most optimisations will
help either, certainly optimisations aimed at scaling to many cores.

The "Work with Intel" probably refers to the fact that Intel is helping the
work by donating many-core servers to MariaDB developers, and maybe with
advice/discussions.
