x86/microcode/intel: Simplify early loading

commit dd5e3e3ca6ac011582a9f3f987493bf6741568c0 upstream.

The early loading code is overly complicated:

  - It scans the builtin/initrd for microcode not only on the BSP, but also
    on all APs during early boot and then later in the boot process it
    scans again to duplicate and save the microcode before initrd goes
    away.

    That's a pointless exercise because this can be simply done before
    bringing up the APs when the memory allocator is up and running.

 - Saving the microcode from within the scan loop is completely
   non-obvious and a left over of the microcode cache.

   This can be done at the call site now which makes it obvious.

Rework the code so that only the BSP scans the builtin/initrd microcode
once during early boot and save it away in an early initcall for later
use.

  [ bp: Test and fold in a fix from tglx ontop which handles the need to
    distinguish what save_microcode() does depending on when it is
    called:

     - when on the BSP during early load, it needs to find a newer
       revision than the one currently loaded on the BSP

     - later, before SMP init, it still runs on the BSP and gets the BSP
       revision just loaded and uses that revision to know which patch
       to save for the APs. For that it needs to find the exact one as
       on the BSP.
