That's just wrong and reintroduces the bug which was fixed with that commit as perf will access a non existing MSR which is brought in by the micro code update. Aside of that the mutex issue _is_ fixed in rc7 already: 5423f5ce5ca4 ("x86/microcode: Fix the microcode load on CPU hotplug for real") Thanks, tglx
