+Subject: x86/microcode/intel: Save microcode patch unconditionally
+
+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
+the cache of patches which is used for late loading too. Regardless of
+whether CPU hotplug is used or not.
+
+Make the saving unconditional so that late loading can find the proper
+patch.
