x86, ucode-amd: Ensure ucode update on suspend/resume after CPU off/online cycle

When switching a CPU offline/online and then doing
suspend/resume, ucode is not updated on this CPU.

This is due to the microcode_fini_cpu() call which frees uci->mc
when setting the CPU offline:

static void microcode_fini_cpu_amd(int cpu)
{
struct ucode_cpu_info *uci = ucode_cpu_info + cpu;

vfree(uci->mc);
uci->mc = NULL;
}

When the CPU is set online uci->mc is still NULL because no
ucode update is required.

Finally this prevents ucode update when resuming after suspend:

static enum ucode_state microcode_resume_cpu(int cpu)
{
struct ucode_cpu_info *uci = ucode_cpu_info + cpu;

if (!uci->mc)
return UCODE_NFOUND;

...
}

Fix is to check whether uci->mc is valid before
microcode_resume_cpu() is called.
