  [Impact]

   * New microcode is available for AMD family 17h processors as of
  2019-10-22.

  [Test Case]

   * There is no testcase for new microcode, as it is unknown what has
  changed.

  [Regression Potential]

   * New microcode is published without a changelog, thus it is unknown what it fixes or regresses,
     yet it is recommeded to upgrade it. The 17h family microcode has been updated

  [Other Info]

   * https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-
  firmware.git/commit/?id=2b016afc348ba4b5fb2016ffcb2822f4a293da0c

  For all proposed packages, the change to not override preset defaults
  from auto-exported conf snippets loaded by initramfs-tools
  (http://launchpadlibrarian.net/435434785/amd64-microcode_3.20181128.1ubuntu1_3.20181128.1ubuntu2.diff.gz)
  is incorporated in addition to the newer microcode. This change had
  already landed in disco and newer, is in the to be superceded package
  in bionic-proposed, and is new to xenial's amd64-microcode package.

  This microcode update *may* address the Ryzen 3000 RDRAND bug, but
  it's not clear without any documentation.
