Subject: x86/MCE: Save microcode revision in machine check records

From: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

commit fa94d0c6e0f3431523f5701084d799c77c7d4a4f upstream.

Updating microcode used to be relatively rare. Now that it has become
more common we should save the microcode version in a machine check
record to make sure that those people looking at the error have this
important information bundled with the rest of the logged information.

[ Borislav: Simplify a bit. ]
