From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>
On CPUs like AMD's Geode, for example, we shouldn't even try to load microcode because they do not support the modern microcode loading interface.
However, we do the family check *after* the other checks whether the loader has been disabled on the command line or whether we're running in a guest.
So move the family checks first in order to exit early if we're being loaded on an unsupported family.
