linux-next: build failure after merge of the driver-core tree

Hi Greg,

After merging the driver-core tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c: In function 'microcode_init':
arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c:557:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'sysdev_driver_unregister' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c:557:28: error: 'cpu_sysdev_class' undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c:557:47: error: 'mc_sysdev_driver' undeclared (first use in this function)

Caused by commit 8a25a2fd126c ("cpu: convert 'cpu' and 'machinecheck'
sysdev_class to a regular subsystem") interacting with commit
bd399063976c ("x86, microcode: Fix the failure path of microcode update
driver init code") which was added to Linux' tree in v3.2-rc5,

I have applied the following merge fix patch:
