SubjectRe: [PATCH] x86/microcode/AMD: check microcode file sanity before loading it

You're not supposed to play with the microcode files. If you do and
something breaks, you get to keep the pieces.

If the official microcode files have a problem, then I'm all ears.
Anything else contrived which doesn't actually happen unless someone
manipulates them is not an issue the microcode loader should protect
against.
