x86/microcode: Add local mutex to fix physical CPU hot-add deadlock

Browse Source 
This can easily be triggered if a new CPU is added (via
ACPI hotplug mechanism) and from user-space you do:

   echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/online

(or wait for UDEV to do it) on a newly appeared physical CPU.

The deadlock is that the "store_online" in drivers/base/cpu.c
takes the cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() lock, then calls "cpu_up".
"cpu_up" eventually ends up calling "save_mc_for_early"
which also takes the cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() lock.

And here is that lockdep thinks of it:

 smpboot: Stack at about ffff880075c39f44
 smpboot: CPU3: has booted.
 microcode: CPU3 sig=0x206a7, pf=0x2, revision=0x25

 =============================================
 [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
 3.9.0upstream-10129-g167af0e #1 Not tainted
 ---------------------------------------------
 sh/2487 is trying to acquire lock:
  (x86_cpu_hotplug_driver_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81075512>] cpu_hotplug_driver_lock+0x12/0x20

 but task is already holding lock:
  (x86_cpu_hotplug_driver_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81075512>] cpu_hotplug_driver_lock+0x12/0x20

 other info that might help us debug this:
  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0
        ----
   lock(x86_cpu_hotplug_driver_mutex);
   lock(x86_cpu_hotplug_driver_mutex);

  *** DEADLOCK ***

  May be due to missing lock nesting notation
