x86/ucode: Remove unnecessary indirection in struct microcode_patch
Currently, each cpu_request_microcode() allocates a struct microcode_patch,
which is a single pointer to a separate allocated structure. This is
wasteful.
Fixing this is complicated because the common microcode_free_patch() code is
responsible for freeing struct microcode_patch, despite this being
asymmetric
with how it is allocated.
Make struct microcode_patch fully opaque to the common logic. This involves
moving the responsibility for freeing struct microcode_patch fully into the
free_patch() hook.
In each vendor logic, use some temporary ifdef-ary (cleaned up in subsequent
changes) to reduce the churn as much as possible, and forgo allocating the
intermediate pointer in cpu_request_microcode().
