[PATCH v5 3/4] x86/ucode: Introduce --force option to xen-ucode

2024-07-12 Thread Fouad Hilly
Introduce --force option to xen-ucode to force skipping microcode version check, which allows the user to update x86 microcode even if both versions are the same or downgrade. xc_microcode_update() refactored to accept flags and utilize xenpf_microcode_update2. Signed-off-by: Fouad Hilly Revie
