x86, microcode, AMD: Simplify ucode verification Basically, what we did until now is take out a chunk of the firmware image, vmalloc space for it and inspect it before application. And repeat. This patch changes all that so that we look at each ucode patch from the firmware image, check it for sanity and copy it to local buffer for application only once and if it passes all checks. Thus, vmalloc-ing for each piece is gone, we can do proper size checking only of the patch which is destined for the CPU of the current machine instead of each single patch, which is clearly wrong. Oh yeah, simplify and cleanup the code while at it, along with adding comments as to what actually happens. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@amd.com>
