I think so. The problem we have now is __pa() macro that we only use

Cool, thanks.

All tests passed.

I'd still take your patch for 3.19 though because I'm fixing the 32-bit
reloading path properly and will remove the ifdef afterwards.

And even then, I'd like to prevent loading the module on a paravirt
guest if it is totally unneeded there.


I wonder whether we should prevent all guests (not just paravirt) from loading microcode driver (and from doing early microcode loading).
