After CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU callback was invoked, the context will become
atomic and IRQ disabled, while mc_cpu_down_prep will called
kernfs_find_and_get_ns which will try to acquire mutext lock which may
sleep.
Adjust CPUHP_AP_MICROCODE_LOADER callback function run before
CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU to fix this bug.

That's just wrong and reintroduces the bug which was fixed with that commit
as perf will access a non existing MSR which is brought in by the micro
code update.
Aside of that the mutex issue _is_ fixed in rc7 already:
5423f5ce5ca4 ("x86/microcode: Fix the microcode load on CPU hotplug for real")
Thanks,
