* Save the amd_bsp_mpb on apply, not on load. Otherwise someone could
later load an older microcode file via load_microcode_amd() that
would overwrite amd_bsp_mpb, but would not be applied to the CPUs
(apply_microcode_amd() checks the current patchlevel, but the copy code
in load_microcode_adm() did not. If somehow cleanup() gets called and
clears pcache find_patch() could return return older patches then the
currently installed microcode)
* Save the amd_bsp_mpb on every update. Otherwise, if someone would
update the microcode after offlining the BSP, these updates would not
get saved and would be lost on resume.
* apply_ucode_in_initrd() now also needs to save amd_bsp_mbp, because
load_microcode_amd() its no longer doing this and its not using
apply_microcode_amd().

Removing this hunk from load_microcode_amd() also allows me to kill the
cpu parameter for that function in the next patch...
