+Subject: x86/microcode/intel: Check microcode revision before updating sibling
+ threads
+
+After updating microcode on one of the threads of a core, the other
+thread sibling automatically gets the update since the microcode
+resources on a hyperthreaded core are shared between the two threads.
+
+Check the microcode revision on the CPU before performing a microcode
+update and thus save us the WRMSR 0x79 because it is a particularly
+expensive operation.
+
+[ Borislav: Massage changelog and coding style. ]
