Yes, it is strange.
Something has changed between coreboot MR3 (not sure which cb version that corresponds with) and coreboot 4.6 that breaks compatibility with FSP MR3.

Yeah, I must have renamed "uCode Patch 1.bin"  to "microcode_patch_1.bin".
Strictly speaking (to operate within spec) I should probably have the other microcode blob there too.
