Okay, the appended version of the patch compiles with CONFIG_SMP unset too.
I think it could be done in a more elegant way, but that would require some
additional infrastructure, which definitely is not 2.6.21 material.

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@...k.pl>
Fix the regression resulting from the recent change of suspend code ordering
that causes systems based on Intel x86 CPUs using the microcode driver to
hang during the resume.
The problem occurs since the microcode driver uses request_firmware() in its
CPU hotplug notifier, which is called after tasks has been frozen and hangs.
It can be fixed by telling the microcode driver to use the microcode stored in
memory during the resume instead of trying to load it from disk.
