Nope, early_cpio can be also used in some other way. Though currently we only support microcode, but we might also want to add acpi override: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/boot/dracut/dracut.git/tree/dracut.sh#n1562
That's fine, but then you need to structure your patch to not add a hook called "microcode", but to actually implement proper support for an early CPIO image prepended to the image. Otherwise, any restrictions which I'm pointing out are purely self-inflicted due to the expressed intent of your patch.
