x86/microcode/intel: Do not retry microcode reloading on the APs

Browse Source 
commit be1b670f61443aa5d0d01782e9b8ea0ee825d018 upstream.

The retries in load_ucode_intel_ap() were in place to support systems
with mixed steppings. Mixed steppings are no longer supported and there is
only one microcode image at a time. Any retries will simply reattempt to
apply the same image over and over without making progress.

  [ bp: Zap the circumstantial reasoning from the commit message. ]
