** Summary changed:

- upgrade amd64-microcode with new microcode & better initramfs hook
+ upgrade amd64-microcode with new microcode for 17h family

** Description changed:

- upgrade amd64-microcode with new microcode & better initramfs hook
- 
  [Impact]
  
-  * New microcode is available
- 
-  * It is hard to generate initrd, with all microcodes included because the 
initramfs hook ignores 
-    preset defaults. Adjust hook to take preset defaults into account.
+  * New microcode is available
  
  [Test Case]
  
-  * There is no testcase for new microcode, as it is unknown what has
+  * There is no testcase for new microcode, as it is unknown what has
  changed.
- 
-  * Install new package, and check that initrd with default settings (i.e. 
modules=most) has amd64 
-    microcode included. And that with modules=dep|list it only does so, if one 
is on AMD cpu.
- 
-  * Install initramfs-tools-ubuntu-core from snap image PPA, the resulting 
initrd should contian 
-    both amd64 and intel microcode, despite using modules=list, due to the 
conf.d default settings
-    it overrides.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
-  * New microcode is published without a changelog, thus it is unknown what it 
fixes or regresses, 
-    yet it is recommeded to upgrade it. The 17h family microcode has been 
updated, almost doubling in size.
- 
-  * The hook default behaviour is not changed, only integration with
- custom conf.d's is improved.
- 
-  * This both shows the SRU team that the risks have been considered,
-    and provides guidance to testers in regression-testing the SRU.
