This function should've been split a long time ago because it is used in
two paths:
1) On the late loading path, when the microcode is loaded through the
request_firmware interface
2) In the save_microcode_in_initrd() path which collects all the
microcode patches which are relevant for the current system before
the initrd with the microcode container has been jettisoned.
In that path, it is not really necessary to iterate over the nodes on
a system and match a patch however it didn't cause any trouble so it
was left for a later cleanup
However, that later cleanup was expedited by the fact that Jens was
enabling "Use L3 as a NUMA node" in the BIOS setting in his machine and
so this causes the NUMA CPU masks used in cpumask_of_node() to be
generated *after* 2) above happened on the first node. Which means, all
those masks were funky, wrong, uninitialized and whatnot, leading to
explosions when dereffing c->microcode in load_microcode_amd().
So split that function and do only the necessary work needed at each
stage.
