Subject: [PATCH v2 08/11] x86/microcode: Distinguish NMI control path on stop-machine callback
Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2026 01:42:46 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260331014251.86353-9-chang.seok.bae@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260331014251.86353-1-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>

load_cpus_stopped() currently centralizes the stop_machine() callback for
both NMI and NMI-less rendezvous. microcode_update_handler() alone is
enough for the latter.

While the NMI-based rendezvous finally reaches the same update handler,
it requires additional logic to trigger and process NMIs. That machinery
will be replaced by stop-machine facility.

As preparation for that conversion, split the callback path to make
NMI-specific steps explicit and clear. Rename the function to align with
the change.
