Pull x86 microcode loading update from Borislav Petkov:
 "A nice Intel microcode blob loading cleanup which gets rid of the ugly
  memcpy wrappers and switches the driver to use the iov_iter API. By
  Jann Horn.

  In addition, the /dev/cpu/microcode interface is finally deprecated as
  it is inadequate for the same reasons the late microcode loading is"
