Hugh Dickins 6f66cbc630 x86 microcode: revert some work_on_cpu
Revert part of af5c820a31 ("x86: cpumask:
use work_on_cpu in arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c")

That change is causing only one Intel CPU's microcode to be updated e.g.
microcode: CPU3 updated from revision 0x9 to 0x17, date = 2005-04-22
where before it announced that also for CPU0 and CPU1 and CPU2.

We cannot use work_on_cpu() in the CONFIG_MICROCODE_OLD_INTERFACE code,
because Intel's request_microcode_user() involves a copy_from_user() from
/sbin/microcode_ctl, which therefore needs to be on that CPU at the time.
