Subject[v2 01/13] x86/microcode/intel: Prevent printing updated microcode rev multiple times
Date
Commit b6f86689d5b7 ("x86/microcode: Rip out the subsys interface gunk")
introduced a race where all CPUs follow this call chain:

microcode_init()->schedule_on_each_cpu(setup_online_cpu)->collect_cpu_info

This results in console spam where multiple CPUs print the signature.

[ 33.688639] microcode: sig=0x50654, pf=0x80, revision=0x2006e05
[ 33.688659] microcode: sig=0x50654, pf=0x80, revision=0x2006e05
[ 33.688660] microcode: sig=0x50654, pf=0x80, revision=0x2006e05

Fix by making sure only boot CPU prints the message.
