x86/microcode: Use native CPUID to tickle out microcode revision
Intel supplies the microcode revision value in MSR 0x8b (IA32_BIOS_SIGN_ID) after CPUID(1) has been executed. Execute it each time before reading that MSR. It used to do sync_core() which did do CPUID but c198b121b1a1 ("x86/asm: Rewrite sync_core() to use IRET-to-self") changed the sync_core() implementation so we better make the microcode loading case explicit, as the SDM documents it.
