x86/microcode/AMD: Clean the cache if update did not load microcode

Browse source

If microcode did not get loaded there is no reason to keep it in the cache.
Moreover, if loading failed it will not be possible to load an earlier version
of microcode since the failed revision will always be selected from the cache
on the next reload attempt.

Since the failed revisions is not easily available at this point just clean the
whole cache. It will be rebuilt later if needed.
