x86/microcode/AMD: Fix mixed steppings support

The AMD side of the loader has always claimed to support mixed
steppings. But somewhere along the way, it broke that by assuming that
the cached patch blob is a single one instead of it being one per
*node*.

So turn it into a per-node one so that each node can stash the blob
relevant for it.

[ NB: Fixes tag is not really the exactly correct one but it is good
enough. ]

x86/microcode/AMD: Handle multiple glued containers properly

It can happen that - especially during testing - the microcode
blobs of all families are all glued together in the initrd. The
current code doesn't check whether the current container matched
a microcode patch and continues to the next one, which leads to
save_microcode_in_initrd_amd() to look at the next and thus wrong one:

microcode: parse_container: ucode: 0xffff88807e9d9082
microcode: verify_patch: buf: 0xffff88807e9d90ce, buf_size: 26428
microcode: verify_patch: proc_id: 0x8082, patch_fam: 0x17, this family: 0x17
microcode: verify_patch: buf: 0xffff88807e9d9d56, buf_size: 23220
microcode: verify_patch: proc_id: 0x8012, patch_fam: 0x17, this family: 0x17
microcode: parse_container: MATCH: eq_id: 0x8012, patch proc_rev_id: 0x8012

<-- matching patch found

microcode: verify_patch: buf: 0xffff88807e9da9de, buf_size: 20012
microcode: verify_patch: proc_id: 0x8310, patch_fam: 0x17, this family: 0x17
microcode: verify_patch: buf: 0xffff88807e9db666, buf_size: 16804
microcode: Invalid type field (0x414d44) in container file section header.
microcode: Patch section fail

<-- checking chokes on the microcode magic value of the next container.

microcode: parse_container: saving container 0xffff88807e9d9082
microcode: save_microcode_in_initrd_amd: scanned containers, data: 0xffff88807e9d9082, size: 9700a

and now if there's a next (and last container) it'll use that in
save_microcode_in_initrd_amd() and not find a proper patch, ofc.

Fix that by moving the out: label up, before the desc->mc check which
jots down the pointer of the matching patch and is used to signal to the
caller that it has found a matching patch in the current container.

x86/microcode/amd: Don't falsely trick the late loading mechanism

x86/microcode/amd: Don't falsely trick the late loading mechanism

The load_microcode_amd() function searches for microcode patches and
attempts to apply a microcode patch if it is of different level than the
currently installed level.

While the processor won't actually load a level that is less than
what is already installed, the logic wrongly returns UCODE_NEW thus
signaling to its caller reload_store() that a late loading should be
attempted.

If the file-system contains an older microcode revision than what is
currently running, such a late microcode reload can result in these
misleading messages:

x86/CPU: CPU features have changed after loading microcode, but might not take effect.
x86/CPU: Please consider either early loading through initrd/built-in or a potential BIOS update.

These messages were issued on a system where SME/SEV are not
enabled by the BIOS (MSR C001_0010[23] = 0b) because during boot,
early_detect_mem_encrypt() is called and cleared the SME and SEV
features in this case.

However, after the wrong late load attempt, get_cpu_cap() is called and
reloads the SME and SEV feature bits, resulting in the messages.

Update the microcode level check to not attempt microcode loading if the
current level is greater than(!) and not only equal to the current patch
level.
