[PATCH] [v2] cpu: microcode: remove failures when kernel does not have newer version (LP: #1322534)

[Alex Hung]

New systems usually have new microcode than kernel does, and
therefore reporting failures is not correct. This patch changes
it to report skipped when kernel does not have microcode updates.
