Description

CONFIG_MICROCODE=m might be responsible for it. There are messages like these:

[    4.822702] microcode: CPU0: patch_level=0x01000065

We already blacklist both CPU microcode packages. The errors make this more noticeable, I'm not convinced that this is needed.

linux-libre-3.4-1.2 is now available, nonfree firmware microcode modules (CONFIG_MICROCODE_INTEL and CONFIG_MICROCODE_AMD) disabled.
x86_64 is now on [libre] repo. i686 is building still.
