It is mentioned a bit further down in the comment:

/*

* which has a patch for this CPU so return 0 to mean, @ucode already
* points to it and it will be parsed later. Otherwise, we return the

Yes. Also, theoretically, some later container might hold an even newer
patch so we will update that pointer when we get there.

Ah, good catch. I guess I'll have to do here:

/* Something corrupted the container, invalidate it. */
eq_id = 0;
break;

too.

Ok, changed. This check goes away later anyway - it gets moved to the
BSP early path.

That is gone later, as you discovered yourself.

The thing is, it is hard to change things in this driver one at a time
without breaking it so I had to restrain myself.

Updated and untested version below. Testing is scheduled for the coming
days :-)

Subject: [PATCH] x86/microcode/AMD: Rework container parsing

It was pretty clumsy before and the whole work of parsing the microcode
containers was spread around the functions wrongly.

Clean it up so that there's a main scan_containers() function which
iterates over the microcode blob and picks apart the containers glued
together. For each container, it calls a parse_container() helper which
concentrates on one container only: sanity-checking, parsing, counting
microcode patches in there, etc.

It makes much more sense now and it is actually very readable. Oh, and
we luvz a diffstat removing more crap than adding.
