Borislav Petkov (AMD) b76eaef983 x86/microcode: Consolidate the loader enablement checking 
commit 5214a9f6c0 upstream.

Consolidate the whole logic which determines whether the microcode loader
should be enabled or not into a single function and call it everywhere.

Well, almost everywhere - not in mk_early_pgtbl_32() because there the kernel
is running without paging enabled and checking dis_ucode_ldr et al would
require physical addresses and uglification of the code.

But since this is 32-bit, the easier thing to do is to simply map the initrd
unconditionally especially since that mapping is getting removed later anyway
by zap_early_initrd_mapping() and avoid the uglification.

In doing so, address the issue of old 486er machines without CPUID
support, not booting current kernels.

  [ mingo: Fix no previous prototype for ‘microcode_loader_disabled’ [-Wmissing-prototypes] ]

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
