On Intel CPUs with x32 kernels we call load_builtin_intel_microcode() from head_32.S on quite earlier stage. At that point sprintf() might be out of scope to be called. As a result the 32-bit kernel does not boot on Intel CPUs. It has been tested on Braswell and Merrifield.
The patch changes sprintf() call to plain code which does the same in this particular case.
