[PATCH RFC 6/8] x86/microcode/intel: Apply minimum revision check to early loading

["Chang S. Bae" <chang.seok.bae@intel.com>]

The minimum revision check is now generally applicable. Establish the
minimum revision check on early loading. Follow the late loading behavior
when the check fails:

 * Load but taint the kernel if not enforced, or
 * Reject the loading if enforced.

Adjust the check function so that the early path can pass the current
revision.

With this establishment, do not reject early loading anymore when
enforced.
