We look up the patch needed for each core from the cache at application time instead of holding a single patch per-system. Also, each commit message should contain additional, hopefully sensible information about each change. Patchset has been tested on all families which are supported by the microcode loader ( >= 0x10). As always, all comments and suggestions are appreciated.
