Dmitry Adamushko 18dbc91605 x86: moved microcode.c to microcode_intel.c
Combine both generic and arch-specific parts of microcode into a
single module (arch-specific parts are config-dependent).

Also while we are at it, move arch-specific parts from microcode.h
into their respective arch-specific .c files.

Dmitry Adamushko a0a29b62a9 x86, microcode rework, v2
this is a rework of the microcode splitup in tip/x86/microcode

(1) I think this new interface is cleaner (look at the changes
    in 'struct microcode_ops' in microcode.h);

(2) it's -64 lines of code;

Dmitry Adamushko d45de40934 x86-microcode: generic interface refactoring
This is the 1st patch in the series. Here the aim was to avoid any
significant changes, logically-wise.

So it's mainly about generic interface refactoring: e.g. make
microcode_{intel,amd}.c more about arch-specific details and less
about policies like make-sure-we-run-on-a-target-cpu
(no more set_cpus_allowed_ptr() here) and generic synchronization (no
more microcode_mutex here).

All in all, more line have been deleted than added.

Peter Oruba 8d86f390d9 x86: major refactoring
Refactored code by introducing a two-module solution.

There is one general module in which vendor specific modules can hook into.
However, that is exclusive, there is only one vendor specific module
allowed at a time. A CPU vendor check makes sure only the correct
module for the underlying system gets called.

Functinally in terms of patch loading itself there are no changes. This
refactoring provides a basis for future implementations of other vendors'
patch loaders.

Peter Oruba 26bf7a48c3 x86: first step of refactoring, introducing microcode_ops
Refactoring with the goal of having one general module and separate
vendor specific modules that hook into the general one.

Microcode_ops is a function pointer structure in which vendor
specific modules will enter all functions that differ between
vendors and that need to be accessed from the general module.

Peter Oruba d4ee366868 x86: structure declaration renaming
Renamed common structures to vendor specific naming scheme
so other vendors will be able to use the same naming
convention.

Peter Oruba c3b71bcec0 x86: move per CPU microcode structure declaration to header file
This structure will be later used by other modules as well and
needs therfore to be moved out to a header file.

Peter Oruba 9a56a0f80b x86: moved Intel microcode patch loader declarations to seperate header file
Intel specific microcode declarations have been moved to a seperate header file.
There are no code changes to the code itself and no side effects to other parts.
