It was pretty clumsy before and the whole work of parsing the microcode
containers was spread around the functions wrongly.
Clean it up so that there's a main scan_containers() function which
iterates over the microcode blob and picks apart the containers glued
together. For each container, it calls a parse_container() helper which
concentrates on one container only: sanity-checking, parsing, counting
microcode patches in there, etc.
It makes much more sense now and it is actually very readable. Oh, and
we luvz a diffstat removing more crap than adding.

Make it into a container descriptor which is being passed around and
stores important info like the matching container and the patch for the
current CPU. Make it static too.
Later patches will use this and thus get rid of a double container
parsing.

No need to have it marked "inline" - let gcc decide. Also, shorten the
argument name and simplify while-test.
While at it, make it into a proper for-loop and simplify it even more,
as tglx suggests.

This was meant to save us the scanning of the microcode containter in
the initrd since the first AP had already done that but it can also hurt
us:
Imagine a single hyperthreaded CPU (Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N270, for
example) which updates the microcode on the BSP but since the microcode
engine is shared between the two threads, the update on CPU1 doesn't
happen because it has already happened on CPU0 and we don't find a newer
microcode revision on CPU1.
Which doesn't set the intel_ucode_patch pointer and at initrd
jettisoning time we don't save the microcode patch for later
application.
Now, when we suspend to RAM, the loaded microcode gets cleared so we
need to reload but there's no patch saved in the cache.
Removing the optimization fixes this issue and all is fine and dandy.

In generic_load_microcode(), curr_mc_size is the size of the last
allocated buffer and since we have this performance "optimization"
there to vmalloc a new buffer only when the current one is bigger,
curr_mc_size ends up becoming the size of the biggest buffer we've seen
so far.
However, we end up saving the microcode patch which matches our CPU
and its size is not curr_mc_size but the respective mc_size during the
iteration while we're staring at it.
So save that mc_size into a separate variable and use it to store the
previously found microcode buffer.
Without this fix, we could get oops like this:

Since on Intel we're required to do CPUID(1) first, before reading
the microcode revision MSR, let's add a special helper which does the

Intel supplies the microcode revision value in MSR 0x8b
(IA32_BIOS_SIGN_ID) after CPUID(1) has been executed. Execute it each
time before reading that MSR.
It used to do sync_core() which did do CPUID but
c198b121b1 ("x86/asm: Rewrite sync_core() to use IRET-to-self")
changed the sync_core() implementation so we better make the microcode
loading case explicit, as the SDM documents it.

When we switch to virtual addresses and, especially after
reserve_initrd()->relocate_initrd() have run, we have the updated initrd
address in initrd_start. Use initrd_start then instead of the address
which has been passed to us through boot params. (That still gets used
when we're running the very early routines on the BSP).

Doing so is completely void of sense for multiple reasons so prevent
it. Set dis_ucode_ldr to true and thus disable the microcode loader by
default to address xen pv guests which execute the AP path but not the
BSP path.
By having it turned off by default, the APs won't run into the loader
either.
Also, check CPUID(1).ECX[31] which hypervisors set. Well almost, not the
xen pv one. That one gets the aforementioned "fix".
Also, improve the detection method by caching the final decision whether
to continue loading in dis_ucode_ldr and do it once on the BSP. The APs
then simply test that value.

Yeah, I know, I know, this is a huuge patch and reviewing it is hard.
Sorry but this is the only way I could think of in which I can rewrite
the microcode patches loading procedure without breaking (knowingly) the
driver.
So maybe this patch is easier to review if one looks at the files after
the patch has been applied instead at the diff. Because then it becomes
pretty obvious:
* The BSP-loading path - load_ucode_bsp() is working independently from
the AP path now and it doesn't save any pointers or patches anymore -
it solely parses the builtin or initrd microcode and applies the patch.
That's it.
This fixes the CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY offset fun more solidly.
* The AP-loading path - load_ucode_ap() then goes and scans
builtin/initrd *again* for the microcode patches but it caches them this
time so that we don't have to do that scan on each AP but only once.
This simplifies the code considerably.
Then, when we save the microcode from the initrd/builtin, we go and
add the relevant patches to our own cache. The AMD side did do that
and now the Intel side does it too. So no more pointer copying and
blabla, we save the microcode patches ourselves and are independent from
initrd/builtin.
This whole conversion gives us other benefits like unifying the
initrd parsing into a single function: find_microcode_in_initrd() is
used by both.

Pull CPU hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Yet another batch of cpu hotplug core updates and conversions:
- Provide core infrastructure for multi instance drivers so the
drivers do not have to keep custom lists.
- Convert custom lists to the new infrastructure. The block-mq custom
list conversion comes through the block tree and makes the diffstat
tip over to more lines removed than added.
- Handle unbalanced hotplug enable/disable calls more gracefully.
- Remove the obsolete CPU_STARTING/DYING notifier support.
- Convert another batch of notifier users.
The relayfs changes which conflicted with the conversion have been
shipped to me by Andrew.
The remaining lot is targeted for 4.10 so that we finally can remove
the rest of the notifiers"

CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY=y randomizes the physical memmap and thus the
address where the initrd is located. Therefore, we need to add the
offset KASLR put us to in order to find the initrd again on the AP path.
In the future, we will get rid of the initrd address caching and query
the address on both the BSP and AP paths but that would need more work.

Usually, after we have found the proper microcode blob for the current
machine, we stash it away for later use with save_microcode_in_initrd().
However, with builtin microcode which doesn't come from the initrd, we
don't call that function because CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=n and even if
set, we don't have a valid initrd.
In order to fix this, let's make save_microcode_in_initrd() an
fs_initcall which runs before rootfs_initcall() as this was the time it
was called previously through:
rootfs_initcall(populate_rootfs)
|-> free_initrd()
|-> free_initrd_mem()
|-> save_microcode_in_initrd()
Also, we make it run independently from initrd functionality being
present or not.
And since it is called in the microcode loader only now, we can also
make it static.

So it can happen that even with builtin microcode,
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y gets forgotten enabled.
Or, even with that disabled, an initrd image gets supplied by the boot
loader, by omission or is simply forgotten there. And since we do look
at boot_params.hdr.ramdisk_* to know whether we have received an initrd,
we might get puzzled.
So let's just make the loader look for builtin microcode first and if
found, ignore the ramdisk image.
If no builtin found, it falls back to scanning the supplied initrd, of
course.
For that, we move all the initrd scanning in a separate
__scan_microcode_initrd() function and fall back to it only if
load_builtin_intel_microcode() has failed.
