The x86 microcode support works just fine without FW_LOADER. In fact, these days most people load microcode early during boot so FW_LOADER never gets into the picture anyway. As almost everyone on x86 needs to enable MICROCODE, this by extension means that FW_LOADER is always built into the kernel even if nothing uses it. The FW_LOADER system is about two thousand lines long and contains user-space facing interfaces that could potentially provide an entry point into the kernel (or beyond). Remove the unnecessary select of FW_LOADER by MICROCODE. People who need the FW_LOADER capability can still enable it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
