<title>Revert "sysutils/cpu-microcode-intel: Handle extended signature tables"</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ead6f1476713d51fd85ffae50645786b782f2d07</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts a change to the way Intel CPU microcode files were split.
In d4b93e8846, an explicitly named file was written for each
signature+platform combination in an image's extended signature table.
Writing these new files offered discoverability advantages, but it was
unnecessary since cpucontrol(8) already checks the embedded extended
signature table.  Moreover, adding these extra files increased the size
of the split files by about 50% when the default SPLIT knob was enabled.

This reverts commit d4b93e88468975e64d6321cfc463f5fc19f46d35.

<content type='text'>
Intel microcode files can contain an extended signature table after the
main payload, listing additional processor signatures and platform flag
combinations that are covered by the same microcode blob.

ucode-split was only reading the primary header signature when naming
output files and ignored the extended table entirely.  As a result,
processors whose signature appeared only in an extended table entry had
no matching split file in ${DATADIR} and therefore no microcode via
cpucontrol(8).

This affected a number of CPU families in the current release, including
Raptor Lake (06-bf-02/05/06/07, Core Gen13/Gen14), Sapphire Rapids
steppings E0-E3 (06-8f-04 through 06-8f-07), Arrow Lake-H (06-c5-02),
Panther Lake (06-cc-02/03), and others.

Extend ucode-split to read the extended signature table and write an
additional output file for each entry.

<content type='text'>
All Intel systems running 15.0 or 14.3 support loading at boot time
without cpu-microcode-rc, therefore, do not depend on it by default.
Update the package message with the current up-to-date instructions.
