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;

microcode_amd.c uses ">> 32" on a 32-bit value, so gcc warns about that.
The code could use something like this *untested* patch.

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.

Don't use get_cpu() at all. Resort to checking a boot-up CPU (#0) in
microcode_{intel,amd}_module_init().

The microcode stores its date in a uint32_t in some weird order
approximating pdp-endian. Rather than printing it like that, print it
properly in ISO standard form.

Alexey Dobriyan reported trouble with LTP with the new fast-gup code,
and Johannes Weiner debugged it to non-page-aligned addresses, where the
new get_user_pages_fast() code would do all the wrong things, including
just traversing past the end of the requested area due to 'addr' never
matching 'end' exactly.
This is not a pretty fix, and we may actually want to move the alignment
into generic code, leaving just the core code per-arch, but Alexey
verified that the vmsplice01 LTP test doesn't crash with this.

lguest uses a Waker process to break it out of the kernel (ie.
actually running the guest) when file descriptor needs attention.
Changing this from a process to a thread somewhat simplifies things:
it can directly access the fd_set of things to watch. More
importantly, it means that the Waker can see Guest memory correctly,
so /dev/vring file descriptors will work as anticipated (the
alternative is to actually mmap MAP_SHARED, but you can't do that with
/dev/zero).
