Normally, we do reapply microcode on resume. However, in the cases where
that microcode comes from the early loader and the late loader hasn't
been utilized yet, there's no easy way for us to go and apply the patch
applied during boot by the early loader.
Thus, reuse the patch stashed by the early loader for the BSP.

The original idea to use the microcode cache for the APs doesn't pan out
because we do memory allocation there very early and with IRQs disabled
and we don't want to involve GFP_ATOMIC allocations. Not if it can be
helped.
Thus, extend the caching of the BSP patch approach to the APs and
iterate over the ucode in the initrd instead of using the cache. We
still save the relevant patches to it but later, right before we
jettison the initrd.
While at it, fix early ucode loading on 32-bit too.

load_microcode_amd() (and the helper it is using) should not have an
cpu parameter. The microcode loading does not depend on the CPU wrt the
patches loaded since they will end up in a global list for all CPUs
anyway.
The change from cpu to x86family in load_microcode_amd()
now allows to drop the code messing with cpu_data(cpu) from
collect_cpu_info_amd_early(), which is wrong anyway because at that
point the per-cpu cpu_info is not yet setup (These values would later be
overwritten by smp_store_boot_cpu_info() / smp_store_cpu_info()).
Fold the rest of collect_cpu_info_amd_early() into load_ucode_amd_ap(),
because its only used at one place and without the cpuinfo_x86 accesses
it was not much left.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files. x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

Fix section mismatch warnings on microcode_amd_early.
Compile error occurs when CONFIG_MICROCODE=m, change so that early
loading depends on microcode_core.
