Introduce the serialize macro to serialize processor state. Why the microcode update needs it I am not quite sure, since wrmsr() is already a serializing instruction, but it is a microcode update, so I will keep the semantic the same, since this could be a timing workaround. As far as I can tell, this has always been there since the original microcode update source.
