    Pull x86 microcode updates from Thomas Gleixner:
    
     - Disable late microcode loading by default. Unless the HW people get
       their act together and provide a required minimum version in the
       microcode header for making a halfways informed decision its just
       lottery and broken.
    
     - Warn and taint the kernel when microcode is loaded late
    
     - Remove the old unused microcode loader interface
    
     - Remove a redundant perf callback from the microcode loader
