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.

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 d1c84f79
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.

x86: microcode: use smp_call_function_single instead of set_cpus_allowed, cleanup of synchronization logic

* Solve issues described in 6f66cbc6
  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.

Combine both generic and arch-specific parts of microcode into a
single module (arch-specific parts are config-dependent).

Also while we are at it, move arch-specific parts from microcode.h
into their respective arch-specific .c files.

this is a rework of the microcode splitup in tip/x86/microcode

(1) I think this new interface is cleaner (look at the changes
    in 'struct microcode_ops' in microcode.h);

(2) it's -64 lines of code;

This is the 1st patch in the series. Here the aim was to avoid any
significant changes, logically-wise.

So it's mainly about generic interface refactoring: e.g. make
microcode_{intel,amd}.c more about arch-specific details and less
about policies like make-sure-we-run-on-a-target-cpu
(no more set_cpus_allowed_ptr() here) and generic synchronization (no
more microcode_mutex here).

All in all, more line have been deleted than added.

Refactored code by introducing a two-module solution.

There is one general module in which vendor specific modules can hook into.
However, that is exclusive, there is only one vendor specific module
allowed at a time. A CPU vendor check makes sure only the correct
module for the underlying system gets called.

Functinally in terms of patch loading itself there are no changes. This
refactoring provides a basis for future implementations of other vendors'
patch loaders.

Refactoring with the goal of having one general module and separate
vendor specific modules that hook into the general one.

Microcode_ops is a function pointer structure in which vendor
specific modules will enter all functions that differ between
vendors and that need to be accessed from the general module.
