That says: | These updates fix bugs/errata that can cause anything from incorrect | processing, to code and data corruption, and system lockups. which seems a little too generic for an RC bug, so I'm lowering severity. Apropos of nothing: I think it would be useful to have basic information packaged on the presence and severity of known bugs in various microcode versions, so that users could tell whether they need to get a microcode update without having to learn to enable non-free. Getting the existing non-free package working better is still very useful without that, of course.
