x86/microcode: Simplify init path even more
mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.2-rc1 commit 2071c0ae category: feature feature: Backport Intel In Field Scan(IFS) multi-blob images support bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/intel-kernel/issues/I6L337 CVE: N/A Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/ commit/?id=2071c0ae Intel-SIG: commit 2071c0ae ("x86/microcode: Simplify init path even more") ------------------------------------- x86/microcode: Simplify init path even more Get rid of all the IPI-sending functions and their wrappers and use those which are supposed to be called on each CPU. Thus: - microcode_init_cpu() gets called on each CPU on init, applying any new microcode that the driver might've found on the filesystem. - mc_cpu_starting() simply tries to apply cached microcode as this is the cpuhp starting callback which gets called on CPU resume too. Even if the driver init function is a late initcall, there is no filesystem by then (not even a hdd driver has been loaded yet) so a new firmware load attempt cannot simply be done. It is pointless anyway - for that there's late loading if one really needs it. Signed-off-by:Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Reviewed-by:
