perf/x86/intel: Drop get_online_cpus() in intel_snb_check_microcode()

If intel_snb_check_microcode() is invoked via
microcode_init -> perf_check_microcode -> intel_snb_check_microcode

then get_online_cpus() is invoked nested. This works with the current
implementation of get_online_cpus() but prevents converting it to a percpu
rwsem.

intel_snb_check_microcode() is also invoked from intel_sandybridge_quirk()
unprotected.

Drop get_online_cpus() from intel_snb_check_microcode() and add it to
intel_sandybridge_quirk() so both call sites are protected.
