[PATCH v4 1/4] x86/microcode: Allow reading microcode revision even if it can't be updated



microcode_update_one() currently assumes all microcode handlers are set or
none are. That won't be the case in a future patch, as apply_microcode()
may not be set while the others are. Hence, this patch allows reading the
microcode revision even if updating it is unavailable.

v4:
  * Only remove the assumptions on handler contents from
    microcode_update_one() and leave early_microcode_init() alone (Andrew)
