Yeah, I know, I know, this is a huuge patch and reviewing it is hard.

Sorry but this is the only way I could think of in which I can rewrite
the microcode patches loading procedure without breaking (knowingly) the
driver.

So maybe this patch is easier to review if one looks at the files after
the patch has been applied instead at the diff. Because then it becomes
pretty obvious:

* The BSP-loading path - load_ucode_bsp() is working independently from
  the AP path now and it doesn't save any pointers or patches anymore -
  it solely parses the builtin or initrd microcode and applies the patch.
  That's it.

This fixes the CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY offset fun more solidly.

* The AP-loading path - load_ucode_ap() then goes and scans
  builtin/initrd *again* for the microcode patches but it caches them this
  time so that we don't have to do that scan on each AP but only once.

This simplifies the code considerably.

Then, when we save the microcode from the initrd/builtin, we go and
add the relevant patches to our own cache. The AMD side did do that
and now the Intel side does it too. So no more pointer copying and
blabla, we save the microcode patches ourselves and are independent from
initrd/builtin.

This whole conversion gives us other benefits like unifying the
initrd parsing into a single function: find_microcode_in_initrd() is
used by both.

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.

This patch unexports the low-level __get_user_pages() function.

Recent refactoring of the get_user_pages* functions allow flags to be
passed through get_user_pages() which eliminates the need for access to
this function from its one user, kvm.

We can see that the two calls to get_user_pages() which replace
__get_user_pages() in kvm_main.c are equivalent by examining their call
stacks:

  get_user_page_nowait():
    get_user_pages(start, 1, flags, page, NULL)
    __get_user_pages_locked(current, current->mm, start, 1, page, NULL, NULL,
			    false, flags | FOLL_TOUCH)
    __get_user_pages(current, current->mm, start, 1,
		     flags | FOLL_TOUCH | FOLL_GET, page, NULL, NULL)

  check_user_page_hwpoison():
    get_user_pages(addr, 1, flags, NULL, NULL)
    __get_user_pages_locked(current, current->mm, addr, 1, NULL, NULL, NULL,
			    false, flags | FOLL_TOUCH)
    __get_user_pages(current, current->mm, addr, 1, flags | FOLL_TOUCH, NULL,

Now that Lorenzo cleaned things up and made the FOLL_FORCE users
explicit, it becomes obvious how some of them don't really need
FOLL_FORCE at all.

So remove FOLL_FORCE from the proc code that reads the command line and
arguments from user space.

The mem_rw() function actually does want FOLL_FORCE, because gdd (and
possibly many other debuggers) use it as a much more convenient version
of PTRACE_PEEKDATA, but we should consider making the FOLL_FORCE part
conditional on actually being a ptracer.  This does not actually do
that, just moves adds a comment to that effect and moves the gup_flags
settings next to each other.

From the beginning of the gpio-mpc8xxx.c, the "handle_level_irq"
has being used to handle GPIO interrupts in the PowerPC/Layerscape
platforms. But actually, almost all PowerPC/Layerscape platforms
assert an interrupt request upon either a high-to-low change or
any change on the state of the signal.

So the "handle_level_irq" is not reasonable for PowerPC/Layerscape
GPIO interrupt, it should be "handle_edge_irq". Otherwise the system
may lost some interrupts from the PIN's state changes.

  x86/cpufeature: Add AVX512_4VNNIW and AVX512_4FMAPS features
  x86/vmware: Skip timer_irq_works() check on VMware

Pull vmap stack fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "This is fallout from CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_VMAP_STACK=y on x86: stack
  accesses that used to be just somewhat questionable are now totally
  buggy.

  These changes try to do it without breaking the ABI: the fields are
  left there, they are just reporting zero, or reporting narrower
  information (the maps file change)"

* 'mm-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  mm: Change vm_is_stack_for_task() to vm_is_stack_for_current()
  fs/proc: Stop trying to report thread stacks
  fs/proc: Stop reporting eip and esp in /proc/PID/stat
  mm/numa: Remove duplicated include from mprotect.c

Pull irq fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Mostly irqchip driver fixes, plus a symbol export"

* 'irq-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  kernel/irq: Export irq_set_parent()
  irqchip/gic: Add missing \n to CPU IF adjustment message
  irqchip/jcore: Don't show Kconfig menu item for driver
  irqchip/eznps: Drop pointless static qualifier in nps400_of_init()
  irqchip/gic-v3-its: Fix entry size mask for GITS_BASER
  irqchip/gic-v3-its: Fix 64bit GIC{R,ITS}_TYPER accesses

Pull EFI fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Add Ard Biesheuvel as EFI co-maintainer, plus fix an ARM build bug
  with older toolchains"

* 'efi-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  efi/arm: Fix absolute relocation detection for older toolchains
  MAINTAINERS: Add myself as EFI maintainer

Apparently trying to poke a disabled or non-existent APIC
leads to a box that doesn't even boot. Let's not do that.

No real clue if this is the right fix, but at least my
P3 machine boots again.
