Impact: remove dead/incorrect code
Currently there is no chipset specific ucode. The checks are incorrect
anyway (e.g. pci device IDs are 16 bit and not 8 bit).
Thus I remove the stuff for the time being and will reintroduce it if
it's foreseeable that it is really needed.

Impact: fix bug resulting in non-loaded AMD microcode
mc_header->processor_rev_id is a 2 byte value. Similar is true for
equiv_cpu in an equiv_cpu_entry -- only 2 bytes are of interest.

(1) mark mc_size in generic_load_microcode() as unitialized_var to avoid
gcc's (false) warning;
(2) mark request_microcode_user() as unsupported. The required changes
can be added later. Note, we don't break any user-space interfaces
here, as there were no kernels with support for AMD-specific ucode
update yet. The ucode has to be updated via 'firmware'.

Renaming based on patch from Dmitry Adamushko.
Further clarification by renaming define and variable related to
microcode container file.

Renaming based on patch from Dmitry Adamushko.
Made code more readable by renaming define and variables related
to microcode _container_file_ header to make it distinguishable from
microcode _patch_ header.

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;

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.
