src/cpu,soc/amd/common/block/cpu: Add preload_microcode
This will enable preloading the microcode. By preloading the file, into cbfs_cache we reduce boot time. BUG=b:179699789 TEST=Boot guybrush with CL chain and see microcode preloading and a reduction of 1 ms. | 112 - started reading uCode | 1.041 | 1.204 Δ( 0.16, 0.01%) | | 113 - finished reading uCode | 1.365 | 0.011 Δ( -1.35, -0.10%) | Signed-off-by: Raul E Rangel <rrangel@chromium.org> Change-Id: If0c634c692c97769e71acd1175fc464dc592c356 Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/58963 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org> Reviewed-by: Karthik Ramasubramanian <kramasub@google.com>
