[PATCH] x86/microcode: don't try to load microcode when running as a xen pv guest

[Juergen Gross]

As a Xen pv guest some mechanisms to do microcode loading or
verification might not work. As the hypervisor is responsible for
loading the microcode just skip microcode loading in case of running
under Xen.
