Hi,

Fedora ships a udev rule for automatic microcode loading. It seems that 
this causes a weird looping on an HP mini 2133 (VIA C-7 processor). 
modprobe returns "No such device" as the system does not support 
microcode loading but when you listen to events with

udevadm monitor

there's an infinite loop of "/module/microcode" ADD/REMOVE. So 
microcode_ctl is nearly always running according to top, hogging the 
machine.

Do you have any idea what can cause this? Here's the udev rule:

KERNEL="cpu[0-9]*", ACTION="add", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe microcode"
KERNEL="microcode", ACTION="add", RUN+="/sbin/microcode_ctl -Qu"

The kernel is 2.6.37.
