From 893b81f79f43bb25e9ba7f83339475fed729899a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexandru Gagniuc Date: Sun, 1 Feb 2015 18:50:12 -0600 Subject: cpu/amd/model_10xxx: Remove UPDATE_CPU_MICROCODE option MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This option is now deperecated by loading microcode updates from cbfs. Remove this option in anticipation of implementing CBFS loading for AMD cpus. Removing it beforehand results in less patch overhead.
