SubjectRe: Intel microcode fixes [OFF-TOPIC]
It would be easy, it seems to me, for Intel to make it so that the microcode
can only be changed once per processor reset, by simply including in any
microcode update code to remove the ability to update the microcode. That
seems safer than relying on the OS to prevent malicious microcode updates.
