Subject: x86/MCE: Save microcode revision in machine check records
From: Tony Luck <[email protected]>
commit fa94d0c6e0f3431523f5701084d799c77c7d4a4f upstream.
Updating microcode used to be relatively rare. Now that it has become more common we should save the microcode version in a machine check record to make sure that those people looking at the error have this important information bundled with the rest of the logged information.
[ Borislav: Simplify a bit. ]
