x86/microcode/intel: replace sync_core() with native_cpuid_reg(eax)

On Intel it is required to do CPUID(1) before reading the microcode
revision MSR. Current code in 4.4 an 4.9 relies on sync_core() to call
CPUID, unfortunately on 32 bit machines code inside sync_core() always
jumps past CPUID instruction as it depends on data structure boot_cpu_data
witch are not populated correctly so early in boot sequence.

It depends on:
commit 5dedade6dfa2 ("x86/CPU: Add native CPUID variants returning a single
datum")

This patch is for 4.4 but also should apply to 4.9
