Fenghua Yu c83a9d5e42 x86-32, microcode_intel_early: Fix crash with CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL
In 32-bit, __pa_symbol() in CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL accesses kernel data
(e.g.  max_low_pfn) that not only hasn't been setup yet in such early
boot phase, but since we are in linear mode, cannot even be detected
as uninitialized.

Thus, use __pa_nodebug() rather than __pa_symbol() to get a global
symbol's physical address.

Fenghua Yu ec400ddeff x86/microcode_intel_early.c: Early update ucode on Intel's CPU
Implementation of early update ucode on Intel's CPU.

load_ucode_intel_bsp() scans ucode in initrd image file which is a cpio format
ucode followed by ordinary initrd image file. The binary ucode file is stored
in kernel/x86/microcode/GenuineIntel.bin in the cpio data. All ucode
patches with the same model as BSP are saved in memory. A matching ucode patch
is updated on BSP.

load_ucode_intel_ap() reads saved ucoded patches and updates ucode on AP.
