[PATCH v7 7/9] x86/microcode/AMD: Add a reminder about PATCH_MAX_SIZE macro
From: Maciej S. Szmigiero
Date: Tue Jun 19 2018 - 14:49:08 EST
The PATCH_MAX_SIZE macro should contain the maximum of all family patch
sizes.
Since these sizes are defined in an other place than this macro, let's add
a reminder to them so people will remember to verify PATCH_MAX_SIZE
correctness when modifying a family patch size or adding a new family.
