Comment 4 for bug 1853614

All the comments on this bug mention removing the amd64-microcode package - so it is not clear to me if this worked previously with the older version of amd64-microcode. The security team has prepared updates which revert this to the older version - can anyone who is affected by this please try installing the amd64-microcode package from the ubuntu-security-proposed PPA - https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-security-proposed/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages - so we can understand if this fixes the issue?
