From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
In the case where cp is not assigned to the return from
the call to find_microcode_in_initrd cp is uninitialized when
it is assigned to *ret. Functions that call __load_ucode_amd
such as load_ucode_amd_bsp can therefore end up checking bogus
values cp.data and cp.size. Fix this by ensuring cp is
initialized as all zero and remove the redundant initialization
of cp in load_ucode_amd_bsp.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
Fixes: e71bb4ec0739 ("x86/microcode/AMD: Unify load_ucode_amd_ap()")
