x86/mce: Save microcode revision in machine check records

From: "Luck, Tony" <tony.luck@intel.com>
Date: 2018-03-01 23:34:53
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

Updating microcode used to be relatively rare. Now that it has become
more common we should save the microcode version in a machine check
record to make sure that those people looking at the error have this
important information bundled with the rest of the logged information.
