>>> What it does
***************************************************************************
Deploy an Intel and AMD microcode. This tool is obsolete and the microcode
is the subject to be distributed via kernel-firmware, however Intel still
does not supply the microcode in a form consumable by the Linux's microcode
driver. So that this tool transform Intel's microcode as well as deploy it.
