Thomas Gleixner 021ab46670 x86/microcode/amd: Use cached microcode for AP load
commit 5af05b8d51a8e3ff5905663655c0f46d1aaae44a upstream

Now that the microcode cache is initialized before the APs are brought
up, there is no point in scanning builtin/initrd microcode during AP
loading.

Convert the AP loader to utilize the cache, which in turn makes the CPU
hotplug callback which applies the microcode after initrd/builtin is
gone, obsolete as the early loading during late hotplug operations
including the resume path depends now only on the cache.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
