x86/microcode: Document the whole late loading problem
Commit
d23d33ea0fcd ("x86/microcode: Taint and warn on late loading")
started tainting the kernel after microcode late loading.
There is some history behind why x86 microcode started doing the late
loading stop_machine() rendezvous. Document the whole situation.
No functional changes.
