[Bug 1983409] Re: Please merge amd64-microcode 3.20220411.1 (main) from Debian unstable (non-free)

I don't believe that's true that you need mem_encrypt=on to function.
If the BIOS advertises support and the kernel has the config option set
it can automatically opt-in I thought.

Before making any decisions, I think it's best to talk to the maintainer
in Debian to find out why they opted to ship the SEV firmware with the
microcode package instead.

If they have a good argument for it, it's probably worthwhile mirroring
what they do to avoid carrying a delta in amd64-microcode and linux-
firmware in Ubuntu.
