Subject: [patch V4 19/30] x86/microcode: Clarify the late load logic
Date: Mon,  2 Oct 2023 13:59:57 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231002115903.145048840@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20231002115506.217091296@linutronix.de

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

reload_store() is way too complicated. Split the inner workings out and
make the following enhancements:

 - Taint the kernel only when the microcode was actually updated. If. e.g.
   the rendevouz fails, then nothing happened and there is no reason for
   tainting.

 - Return useful error codes
