microcode: Use request_firmware_direct()
Use the new helper, request_firmware_direct(), for avoiding the lengthy timeout of non-existing firmware loads. Especially the Intel microcode driver suffers from this problem because each CPU triggers the f/w loading, thus it ends up taking (literally) hours with many cores.
