We want to use those in AMD's early loading path too. Also, add a
native_wrmsrl variant.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files. x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

We are in the process of removing all the __cpuinit annotations.
While working on making that change, an existing problem was
made evident:
WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x198f2): Section mismatch
in reference from the function cpu_init() to the function
.init.text:load_ucode_ap() The function cpu_init() references
the function __init load_ucode_ap(). This is often because cpu_init
lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of load_ucode_ap is wrong.
This now appears because in my working tree, cpu_init() is no longer
tagged as __cpuinit, and so the audit picks up the mismatch. The 2nd
hypothesis from the audit is the correct one, as there was an incorrect
__init tag on the prototype in the header (but __cpuinit was used on
the function itself.)
The audit is telling us that the prototype's __init annotation took
effect and the function did land in the .init.text section. Checking
with objdump on a mainline tree that still has __cpuinit shows that
the __cpuinit on the function takes precedence over the __init on the
prototype, but that won't be true once we make __cpuinit a no-op.
Even though we are removing __cpuinit, we temporarily align both
the function and the prototype on __cpuinit so that the changeset
can be applied to stable trees if desired.

Define interfaces load_ucode_bsp() and load_ucode_ap() to load ucode on BSP and
AP in early boot time. These are generic interfaces. Internally they call
vendor specific implementations.

This is done in preparation for teaching the ucode driver to either load
a new ucode patches container from userspace or use an already cached
version. No functionality change in this patch.

get_ucode_data was a trivial memcpy wrapper. Remove it so as not to
obfuscate code unnecessarily with no obvious gain.
No functional change.

get_ucode_data is a memcpy() wrapper which always returns 0. Move it
into the header and make it an inline. Remove all code checking its
return value and turn it into a void.
There should be no functionality change resulting from this patch.

Commit d1c84f79a6ba992dc01e312c44a21496303874d6
leads to a regression when microcode_amd.c is compiled into the kernel.
It causes a big boot delay because the firmware is not available.
See http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126267290920060
It also renders the reload sysfs attribute useless.
Fixing this is too intrusive for an -rc5 kernel.
Thus I'd like to restore the microcode loading behaviour of kernel
2.6.32.

This also implies that corresponding log messages, e.g.
platform microcode: firmware: requesting amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin
show up only once on module load and not when ucode is updated
for each CPU.

* Solve issues described in 6f66cbc63081fd70e3191b4dbb796746780e5ae1
in a way that doesn't resort to set_cpus_allowed();
* in fact, only collect_cpu_info and apply_microcode callbacks
must run on a target cpu, others will do just fine on any other.
smp_call_function_single() (as suggested by Ingo) is used to run
these callbacks on a target cpu.
* cleanup of synchronization logic of the 'microcode_core' part
The generic 'microcode_core' part guarantees that only a single cpu
(be it a full-fledged cpu, one of the cores or HT)
is being updated at any particular moment of time.
In general, there is no need for any additional sync. mechanism in
arch-specific parts (the patch removes existing spinlocks).
See also the "Synchronization" section in microcode_core.c.
* return -EINVAL instead of -1 (which is translated into -EPERM) in
microcode_write(), reload_cpu() and mc_sysdev_add(). Other suggestions
for an error code?
* use 'enum ucode_state' as return value of request_microcode_{fw, user}
to gain more flexibility by distinguishing between real error cases
and situations when an appropriate ucode was not found (which is not an
error per-se).
* some minor cleanups
Thanks a lot to Hugh Dickins for review/suggestions/testing!

Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:
a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.
