[Bug 1854658] Re: My CPU is AMD. Software Updater shows "Processor microcode firmware" updates for both AMD and Intel CPUs. Automatically detect CPU and only show correct CPU update.

[Clinton H]

Why not group the microcode updates into a "CPU Microcode Update"
package? Some people might deselect the incorrect microcode. If the user
choose to swap their drive into a new machine with a different CPU
vendor, they would remain secure.
