https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/80567/comment/4c4b55ad_9942d00e : PS2, Line 9: This patch eliminates coreboot from loading microcode from : RW CBFS (when the RO descriptor is locked, which indicate : a fixed RO image) because the kernel can already patch the : microcode on BSPs and APs while booting to OS. : : This may be a chance to lower the burden on the AP FW side : because patching microcode on in-field devices is subject : to firmware updates, which are rarely updated and, if : required, must go through the firmware qualification testing : procedure (which is costly, unlike kernel updates for ucode : updates).
