Is the primary point of contention for a trusty backport the early initramfs microcode loading referenced in comment #12? Can we continue using the same mechanism previous trusty microcode updates used?

Also, it sounds like 14.04 trusty has the early microcode loading feature?

Please disregard if the above link is something else but it would be good to know the technical details on what's preventing a trusty backport.
