This bug was fixed in the package amd64-microcode -
3.20191021.1ubuntu0.19.04.1

---------------
amd64-microcode (3.20191021.1ubuntu0.19.04.1) disco; urgency=medium

  * Backport to Ubuntu 19.04 (LP: #1850752)

amd64-microcode (3.20191021.1ubuntu1) focal; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable (LP: #1850752). Remaining changes:
    - initramfs-tools hook (debian/initramfs.hook):
      + Default to 'early' instead of 'auto' when building with
        MODULES=most
      + Do not override preset defaults from auto-exported conf
        snippets loaded by initramfs-tools.

amd64-microcode (3.20191021.1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New microcode update packages from AMD upstream:
    + New Microcodes:
      sig 0x00830f10, patch id 0x08301025, 2019-07-11
    + Updated Microcodes:
      sig 0x00800f12, patch id 0x08001250, 2019-04-16
      sig 0x00800f82, patch id 0x0800820d, 2019-04-16
  * README: update for new release

amd64-microcode (3.20181128.1ubuntu1.1) disco; urgency=medium

  * Do not override preset defaults from auto-exported conf snippets
    loaded by initramfs-tools. This thus allows other hooks, or
    alternative confdir override the built-in defaults at mkinitramfs
    time. Specifically to support generating installer/golden/bare-metal
    initrds with all microcodes for any hardware. LP: #1840670

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * 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.

  [Test Case]

   * 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]

   * The hook default behaviour is not changed, only integration with
  custom conf.d's is improved.
