(err... I'm a bit confused by the use of "fixed" here. The snippet
posted by Andrew illustrates how it was _before_ the fix,
i.e. it's the version that causes the "scheduling while atomic" bug).

IOW, If your local version has cpu_data(get_cpu()) in
microcode_intel_module_init(), then it explains the trace you have
observed. That also means you are not up-to-date with -next.
