Unfortunately this process currently only works for AMD, but not for
Intel, since Arch Linux doesn't package the necessary files standalone:
they are downloaded by intel-ucode and used to produce a CPIO image, but
not added to /usr/lib/firmware/intel-ucode/ separately. If dracut
becomes the default initramfs generator, this should be changed so that
microcode updates work out of the box with dracut.


This is not a huge issue, if the microcode is passed alongside the initramfs
on the cmdline, like we have been doing.

We might also change the intel-ucode package, but it is not a requirement and
will not prevent the move to dracut.
