Subject[4.15 & 4.14 stable 07/12] x86/microcode: Do not upload microcode if CPUs are offline
Date
commit 30ec26da9967d0d785abc24073129a34c3211777 upstream

Avoid loading microcode if any of the CPUs are offline, and issue a
warning. Having different microcode revisions on the system at any time
is outright dangerous.
