x86/microcode/32: Move early loading after paging enable

32-bit loads microcode before paging is enabled. The commit which
introduced that has zero justification in the changelog. The cover letter
has slightly more content, but it does not give any technical justification
either:

"The problem in current microcode loading method is that we load a
microcode way, way too late; ideally we should load it before turning
paging on. This may only be practical on 32 bits since we can't get to
64-bit mode without paging on, but we should still do it as early as at
all possible."

Handwaving word salad with zero technical content.

Someone claimed in an offlist conversation that this is required for curing
the ATOM erratum AAE44/AAF40/AAG38/AAH41. That erratum requires an
microcode update in order to make the usage of PSE safe. But during early
boot PSE is completely irrelevant and it is evaluated way later.

Neither is it relevant for the AP on single core HT enabled CPUs as the
microcode loading on the AP is not doing anything.

On dual core CPUs there is a theoretical problem if a split of an
executable large page between enabling paging including PSE and loading the
microcode happens. But that's only theoretical, it's practically irrelevant
because the affected dual core CPUs are 64bit enabled and therefore have
paging and PSE enabled before loading the microcode on the second core. So
why would it work on 64-bit but not on 32-bit?

The erratum:

"AAG38 Code Fetch May Occur to Incorrect Address After a Large Page is
Split Into 4-Kbyte Pages

Problem: If software clears the PS (page size) bit in a present PDE
(page directory entry), that will cause linear addresses mapped through
this PDE to use 4-KByte pages instead of using a large page after old
TLB entries are invalidated. Due to this erratum, if a code fetch uses
this PDE before the TLB entry for the large page is invalidated then it
may fetch from a different physical address than specified by either the
old large page translation or the new 4-KByte page translation. This
erratum may also cause speculative code fetches from incorrect addresses."

The practical relevance for this is exactly zero because there is no
splitting of large text pages during early boot-time, i.e. between paging
enable and microcode loading, and neither during CPU hotplug.

IOW, this load microcode before paging enable is yet another voodoo
programming solution in search of a problem. What's worse is that it causes
at least two serious problems:

1) When stackprotector is enabled then the microcode loader code has the
stackprotector mechanics enabled. The read from the per CPU variable
__stack_chk_guard is always accessing the virtual address either
directly on UP or via FS on SMP. In physical address mode this results
in an access to memory above 3GB. So this works by chance as the
hardware returns the same value when there is no RAM at this physical
address. When there is RAM populated above 3G then the read is by
chance the same as nothing changes that memory during the very early
boot stage. That's not necessarily true during runtime CPU hotplug.

2) When function tracing is enabled, then the relevant microcode loader
functions and the functions invoked from there will call into the
tracing code and evaluate global and per CPU variables in physical
address mode. What could potentially go wrong?

Cure this and move the microcode loading after the early paging enable and
remove the gunk in the microcode loader which is required to handle
physical address mode.
