x86/microcode/intel: Add a helper which gives the microcode revision
commit
4167709bbf826512a52ebd6aafda2be104adaec9 upstream.
Since on Intel we're required to do CPUID(1) first, before reading
the microcode revision MSR, let's add a special helper which does the
required steps so that we don't forget to do them next time, when we
want to read the microcode revision.

[bwh: Backported to 4.9:
- Keep using sync_core(), which will alway includes the necessary CPUID
- Adjust context]
