Borislav Petkov 777284b66f x86/microcode: Run the AP-loading routine only on the application processors
cpu_init() is run also on the BSP (in addition to the APs):

 x86_64_start_kernel
 |-> x86_64_start_reservations
 |-> start_kernel
 |-> trap_init
 |-> cpu_init
 |-> load_ucode_ap
 ...

but we run the AP (Application Processors) microcode loading routine
there too even though we have a BSP-specific routine for that:
load_ucode_bsp().

Which is unnecessary. So let's limit the AP microcode loading routine to
the APs only.

Remove a useless comment while at it.
