Subject[PATCH v3 2/4] x86/microcode: Fix __user annotations around generic_load_microcode()
From
generic_load_microcode() deals with a pointer that can be either a kernel
pointer or a user pointer. Pass it around as a __user pointer so that it
can't be dereferenced accidentally while its address space is unknown.
Use explicit casts to convert between __user and __kernel to inform the
checker that these address space conversions are intentional.
