From 3b2e3d85aeb80769fb96c15ee4f6e14135328471 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Herrmann Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2010 21:34:56 +0100 Subject: Revert "x86: ucode-amd: Load ucode-patches once ..." Commit d1c84f79a6ba992dc01e312c44a21496303874d6 leads to a regression when microcode_amd.c is compiled into the kernel. It causes a big boot delay because the firmware is not available. See http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126267290920060 It also renders the reload sysfs attribute useless. Fixing this is too intrusive for an -rc5 kernel. Thus I'd like to restore the microcode loading behaviour of kernel 2.6.32. CC: Gene Heskett Signed-off-by: Andreas Herrmann LKML-Reference: <20100122203456.GB13792@alberich.amd.com> Signed-off-by: H.
