The current plans are for stable to wait for Intel's official microcode
update pack.

It is not like this set of microcode updates will get you anything
without the kernel IBRS and IPBP support, which is still being
stabilized.

These updates are currently necessary for people doing the kernel work
and for testing and stabilization.  Ditto for AMD microcode updates,
which I will upload soon now that the kernel support for loading them
has made it to Linux mainline.
