commit 7e702d17ed138cf4ae7c00e8c00681ed464587c7 upstream.
Commit b94b73733171 ("x86/microcode/intel: Extend BDW late-loading with a
revision check") reduced the impact of erratum BDF90 for Broadwell model
79.
The impact can be reduced further by checking the size of the last level
cache portion per core.
Tony: "The erratum says the problem only occurs on the large-cache SKUs.
So we only need to avoid the update if we are on a big cache SKU that is
also running old microcode."
For more details, see erratum BDF90 in document #334165 (Intel Xeon
Processor E7-8800/4800 v4 Product Family Specification Update) from
September 2017.

commit b94b7373317164402ff7728d10f7023127a02b60 upstream.
Instead of blacklisting all model 79 CPUs when attempting a late
microcode loading, limit that only to CPUs with microcode revisions <
0x0b000021 because only on those late loading may cause a system hang.
For such processors either:
a) a BIOS update which might contain a newer microcode revision
or
b) the early microcode loading method
should be considered.
Processors with revisions 0x0b000021 or higher will not experience such
hangs.
For more details, see erratum BDF90 in document #334165 (Intel Xeon
Processor E7-8800/4800 v4 Product Family Specification Update) from
September 2017.

Rename apply_microcode() in microcode/intel.c to
apply_microcode_intel(), and declare it as static. This is a cosmetic
fix to silence a warning issued by sparse.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core / sysfs patches from Greg KH:
"Here's the big driver core and sysfs patch set for 3.14-rc1.
There's a lot of work here moving sysfs logic out into a "kernfs" to
allow other subsystems to also have a virtual filesystem with the same
attributes of sysfs (handle device disconnect, dynamic creation /
removal as needed / unneeded, etc)
This is primarily being done for the cgroups filesystem, but the goal
is to also move debugfs to it when it is ready, solving all of the
known issues in that filesystem as well. The code isn't completed
yet, but all should be stable now (there is a big section that was
reverted due to problems found when testing)
There's also some other smaller fixes, and a driver core addition that
allows for a "collection" of objects, that the DRM people will be
using soon (it's in this tree to make merges after -rc1 easier)
All of this has been in linux-next with no reported issues"

We've grown a bunch of microcode loader files all prefixed with
"microcode_". They should be under cpu/ because this is strictly
CPU-related functionality so do that and drop the prefix since they're
in their own directory now which gives that prefix. :)
While at it, drop MICROCODE_INTEL_LIB config item and stash the
functionality under CONFIG_MICROCODE_INTEL as it was its only user.
