I happen to have come across this. I don't have the knowledge to help,
but it does sound like this is a kernel issue rather than a problem with
the intel-microcode package, so let's reassign it. Otherwise it won't
get attention from anyone who might know.
"Critical" importance is probably not correct, but I'll let the kernel
team triagers decide that.
** Package changed: intel-microcode (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)

Title:
having btrfs installed as the fs is causing a crash when trying to
install the intel-microcode package
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I am able to reproduce a bug which causes a kernel panic when the
following conditions are met:
1. Xubuntu 16.04 beta 1 is installed
2. btrfs is used as the filesystem
3. The intel-microcode package is installed after the initial system setup is
complete
I have got an actual photo of the screen when the crash happens as I
was unable to locate the correct log file where this would have shown
up.
I can provide any logs that may be useful
