Subject: [rfc-patch, bugfix 1/2] x86-microcode: generic updates


From: Dmitry Adamushko <dmitry.adamushko@...il.com>

(1) Introduce microcode_update_cpu() which is a generic routine to do ucode-updates (for both bootup-path
and system-resume-path);

(2) Adapt the logic of cpu-hotplug handlers;

(3) Fix a race with sched_setaffinity() in reload_store()

We introduce another mechanism to run ucode-updates on a target cpu
to replace set_cpus_allowed_ptr() being called from cpu-hotplug events

(which causes a bug#11197: http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0807.3/3791.html)

microcode_update_cpu() can be run either from start_secondary()
(perhaps via a function pointer) or scheduled via keventd (implemented by the following patch).

all in all, we remove more lines than we add (84/79)
