Subject: [PATCH V3 0/4] x86/microcode: early microcode patch loading support on AMD

The following patchset adds early microcode patch loading support on
AMD systems, on top of the framework introduced by:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/21/193

V3:
* Moved early logic to microcode_amd_early.c
* Revised x86 vendor detection in microcode_core_early.c to use switch
  statement.
* Added AMD blurb to Documentation/x86/early-microcode.txt

V2:
* Fixed warnings when compiling without early loading
* Picked up a typo fix [PATCH 1/4] from Boris

Borislav Petkov (1):
  x86, microcode, intel: Correct typo in printk

Jacob Shin (3):
  x86/microcode: vendor abstract out save_microcode_in_initrd()
  x86/microcode/amd: refactor functions to prepare for early loading
  microcode/x86/amd: early microcode patch loading support for AMD
