x86/microcode/amd: Cache builtin/initrd microcode early

Browse source

There is no reason to scan builtin/initrd microcode on each AP.

Cache the builtin/initrd microcode in an early initcall so that the
early AP loader can utilize the cache.

The existing fs initcall which invoked save_microcode_in_initrd_amd() is
still required to maintain the initrd_gone flag. Rename it accordingly.
This will be removed once the AP loader code is converted to use the
cache.
