[Xen-devel] [PATCH] x86, microcode: Remove unnecessary paravirt_enabled check

[Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Commit a18a0f6850d4 ("x86, microcode: Don't initialize microcode code on
paravirt") added a paravirt test in microcode_init(), primarily to avoid
making mc_bp_resume()->load_ucode_ap()->check_loader_disabled_ap() calls
On 32-bit kernels this callchain ends up using __pa_nodebug() macro
which is invalid for Xen PV guests.

A subsequent commit, fbae4ba8c4a3 ("x86, microcode: Reload microcode on
resume"), eliminated this callchain thus making a18a0f6850d4
unnecessary.
