Thomas Gleixner 5423f5ce5c x86/microcode: Fix the microcode load on CPU hotplug for real
A recent change moved the microcode loader hotplug callback into the early
startup phase which is running with interrupts disabled. It missed that
the callbacks invoke sysfs functions which might sleep causing nice 'might
sleep' splats with proper debugging enabled.

Split the callbacks and only load the microcode in the early startup phase
and move the sysfs handling back into the later threaded and preemptible
bringup phase where it was before.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
