Error log:
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/core.c: In function 'find_microcode_in_initrd':
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/core.c:198:25: error: 'initrd_start_early' undeclared

$ git grep initrd_start_early
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/core.c:           start = initrd_start_early;

Caused by 4a148d0054f3f ("x86/microcode/32: Move early loading after paging enable").

Looks like 4c585af7180c1 ("x86/boot/32: Temporarily map initrd for microcode loading")
may be a prerequisite, though I did not check details.
