I tested this patch series and observed that the inline code above failed
the late microcode loading with the error message:
[ 117.100299] microcode: Error: bad microcode data file size.
According to the original get_totalsize() macro, seems like it should be:
return hdr->datasize ? hdr->totalsize : DEFAULT_UCODE_TOTALSIZE;
With this minor change, the late microcode loading was successful, and the
expected message was displayed:
...
[ 150.198654] microcode: Microcode revision: 0x80000400 -> 0x80000401
