[PATCH] x86/microcode: allow non-root reading of microcode version and processor flags

[Jacek Tomaka]

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/microcode

Before:
-r-------- processor_flags
-r-------- version

After:
-r--r--r-- processor_flags
-r--r--r-- version

Microcode version has been already readable for non root users via
/proc/cpuinfo. However it is easier to access it from
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/microcode/version
