Per reports from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-microcode/+bug/1882890, sig 0x000406e3, pf_mask 0xc0, 2020-04-27, rev 0x00dc, size 104448 hangs user's system in a similar way as #24 does but to different cpu. It's also reported the same file of a previous revision microcode: sig=0x406e3, pf=0x80, revision=0xd6 works just fine.

Thank you. Most Linux distros do exactly that: update directly from BIOS to latest MCU (via an early update), that's why we request a reboot to apply the microcode updates.

It is important data for anyone doing late loads, though. Thank you for this information
