The module must not be removed. Microcode updates are ephemeral and
will be lost should your computer need to reset the processor for any
reason (typical ones are: new core being brought online, suspend to RAM,
suspend to disk).
If none of these situations apply to you, you can remove the module at
your own risk, for very little gain and bearing the cost of a full
kernel stop while the module is unloaded. But it is not something that
can be safely done as a rule, it is something you will have to configure
in your own system.
** Changed in: microcode.ctl (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid
