-tip testing found the following bug - there's a _long_ boot delay of 
58.6 seconds if the CPU family is not supported:

[    1.421761] calling  microcode_init+0x0/0x137 @ 1

[   61.433126] microcode: failed to load file amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin

[   61.459116] initcall microcode_init+0x0/0x137 returned 0 after 58625622 usecs            

Where does this delay come from?
