OK, let 's set this straight.
- The original description of this bug is now a moot point, "microcode" is no
longer a module (kernel 3.11-rc has microcode set to y instead of m which is
correct) and therefore cannot be added to initrd_modules or whatever.
- Now you *really* need to add the microcode files to the initrd, preferable
implemented in the "early microcode" form :
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/x86/early-microcode.txt , why ?
because the microcode init happens in the kernel * well before* /lib/firmware
is available (before filesystems and AHCI init) therefore to get the microcode
update applied userspace would have to echo 1 >
/sys/devices/system/cpu/microcode/reload.
