I notice that the amd64-microcode package never gets updated in a stable Ubuntu release.

amd microcode is part of upstream linux-firmware. Is it also shipped inside the ubuntu linux-firmware package?

For example, this is the latest amd microcode commit upstream:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/?id=5f8ca0c1db6106a2d6d7e85eee778917ff03c3de

So my point is, is there a local policy to organize where the amd microcode is going to be shipped in Ubuntu? amd64-microcode or linux-firmware?
