Cover letter [PATCH 0/3] x86/microcode: Some fixes

From: Borislav Petkov <[email protected]>

Hi all,

here is a nice cleanup from Jann along with a long overdue deprecation of /dev/cpu/microcode. So overdue that it was broken for more than a year and it went unnoticed. A very good sign that it can safely go to the eternal fields of dead electrons.

Thx.
