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.
