So, the patch id values have only been obtained empirically.
The Linux patch provides the bug reference for
this:https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=913996
(It's a fairly long thread but the gist of it is that people
predominantly seem to be experiencing system hang issues
when they try to update microcode levels from these patch ids:
0x01000098, 0x0100009f, 0x010000af)
From discussing about it internally, we gathered that OS/hypervisor
cannot reliably perform microcode updates beyond these specified levels
due to HW issues.
Ok - please include this information in the comment as well please.
Will do that.
Thanks,
