x86/microcode/intel: Cleanup get_matching_model_microcode()

Reflow arguments, sort local variables in reverse christmas tree, kill
"out" label.

No functionality change.

@cpu is unused, kill it.

x86/microcode/intel: Rename mc_saved_in_initrd

2016-02-09T10:41:18+00:00

Rename it to mc_tmp_ptrs to denote better what it is - a temporary array
for saving pointers to microcode blobs. And "initrd" is not accurate
anymore since initrd is not the only source for early microcode.
Therefore, rename copy_initrd_ptrs() to copy_ptrs() simply and
"initrd_start" to "offset".

And then do the following convention: the global variable is called
"mc_tmp_ptrs" and the local function arguments "mc_ptrs" for
differentiation.

x86/microcode/intel: Use *wrmsrl variants

2016-02-09T10:41:17+00:00

... and drop the 32-bit casting games which we had to do at the time
because wrmsr() was unforgiving then, see c3fd0bd5e19a from the
full history tree:

  commit c3fd0bd5e19aaff9cdd104edff136a2023db657e
  Author: Linus Torvalds 
  Date:   Tue Feb 17 23:23:41 2004 -0800

    Fix up the microcode update on regular 32-bit x86. Our wrmsr()
    is a bit unforgiving and really doesn't like 64-bit values.

x86/microcode/intel: Cleanup apply_microcode_intel()

2016-02-09T10:41:17+00:00

Get rid of local variable cpu_num as it is equal to @cpu now. Deref
cpu_data() only when it is really needed at the end.

No functionality change.

x86/microcode/intel: Move the BUG_ON up and turn it into WARN_ON

2016-02-09T10:41:17+00:00

If we're going to BUG_ON() because we're running on the wrong CPU, we
better do it as the first thing we do when entering that function. And
also, turn it into a WARN_ON() because it is not worth to panic the
system if we apply the microcode on the wrong CPU - we're simply going
to exit early.

x86/microcode/intel: Rename mc_intel variable to mc

2016-02-09T10:41:17+00:00

Well, it is apparent what it points to - microcode. And since it is the
intel loader, no need for the "_intel" suffix. Use "!" for the 0/NULL
checks, while at it.

No functionality change.

2016-02-09T10:41:17+00:00

It is shorter and easier on the eyes. Change the "== 0" tests to "!..."
