4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ashok Raj <ashok.raj@xxxxxxxxx> commit 30ec26da9967d0d785abc24073129a34c3211777 upstream. Avoid loading microcode if any of the CPUs are offline, and issue a warning. Having different microcode revisions on the system at any time is outright dangerous.
