x86, microcode, AMD: Unify valid container checks
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
For additional coverage, BorisO and friends unknowlingly did swap AMD
microcode with Intel microcode blobs in order to see what happens. What
did happen on 32-bit was

[    5.722656] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at be3a6008
[    5.722693] IP: [<c106d6b4>] load_microcode_amd+0x24/0x3f0
[    5.722716] *pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000

because there was a valid initrd there but without valid microcode in it
and the container check happened *after* the relocated ramdisk handling
on 32-bit, which was clearly wrong.

While at it, take care of the ramdisk relocation on both 32- and 64-bit
as it is done on both. Also, comment what we're doing because this code
is a bit tricky.
