x86/microcode: Parse built-in microcode early Apparently, people do build microcode into the kernel image, i.e. CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL=y. Make that work in the early loader which is where microcode should be preferably loaded anyway. Note that you need to specify the microcode filename with the path relative to the toplevel firmware directory (the same like the late loading method) in CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE=y so that early loader can find it. I.e., something like this (Intel variant): CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL=y CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="intel-ucode/06-3a-09" CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR="/lib/firmware/" While at it, add me to the loader copyright boilerplate.
