Subject: [Patch V1 6/7] x86/microcode/intel: Print old and new rev during early boot

Make early loading message to match late loading messages. Print
both old and new revisions.

This is helpful to know what the BIOS loaded revision is before an early
update.

microcode: early update: 0x2b000041 -> 0x2b000070 date = 2000-01-01

Store the early BIOS revision and change the print format to match late
loading message from microcode/core.c

Cache the early BIOS revision before the microcode update and change
print_ucode_info() so it prints both the old and the new revision in the
same format as $function().

Oh. Forgot to mention that before. Can you please get rid of this
pointless line break after 'static void' ?

And while at it also consolidate these arguments into a single or at max.
two lines?

Should happen in the first patch which touches this function.

Other than that, the code is fine.

Thanks,
