Subject: [PATCH 1/3] x86, intel: Output microcode revision

From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

I got a request to make it easier to determine the microcode update level
on Intel CPUs. This patch adds a new "cpu update" field to /proc/cpuinfo,
which I added at the end to minimize impact on parsers.

The update level is also outputed on fatal machine checks together
with the other CPUID model information.

I removed the respective code from the microcode update driver, it
just reads the field from cpu_data. Also when the microcode is updated
it fills in the new values too.

I had to add a memory barrier to native_cpuid to prevent it being
optimized away when the result is not used.

This turns out to clean up further code which already got this
information manually. This is done in followon patches.
