[PATCH 1/2] x86/microcode/intel: Save microcode patch unconditionally

[Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de>]

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

save_mc_for_early() was a no-op on !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU but the
generic_load_microcode() path saves the microcode patches it has found
into our cache of patches which is used for late loading too. Regardless
of whether we do CPU hotplug or not.

So make the saving unconditional so that late loading can find the
proper patch.
