This changed on newer kernels.

You will notice the kernel message DOES NOT mention any particular cpu
anymore (before, it would have CPU# somewhere). That means the kernel is
not going to repeat the message for every "CPU" unless they happen to
need different microcode, which is not true for your machine.

Please check /proc/cpuinfo output: it should list the updated microcode
revision for all cores.
