commit 6f059e634dcd0d725854514c94c114bbdd83950d upstream
reload_store() is way too complicated. Split the inner workings out and make the following enhancements:
- Taint the kernel only when the microcode was actually updated. If. e.g. the rendezvous fails, then nothing happened and there is no reason for tainting.
- Return useful error codes
