Subject[PATCH 12/17] x86/microcode/intel: Use *wrmsrl variants
Date
From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

... and drop the 32-bit casting games which we had to do at the time
because wrmsr() was unforgiving then, see c3fd0bd5e19a from the
full history tree:

commit c3fd0bd5e19aaff9cdd104edff136a2023db657e
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@home.osdl.org>
Date: Tue Feb 17 23:23:41 2004 -0800

Fix up the microcode update on regular 32-bit x86. Our wrmsr()
is a bit unforgiving and really doesn't like 64-bit values.
