    x86/microcode: Unmodularize the microcode driver · 9a2bc335

    Make CONFIG_MICROCODE a bool. It was practically a bool already anyway,
    since early loader was forcing it to =y.
    
    Regardless, there's no real reason to have something be a module which
    gets built-in on the majority of installations out there. And its not
    like there's noticeable change in functionality - we still can load late
    microcode - just the module glue disappears.
