Also Debian manually load the module, and it remove it
after upgrading microcode (no need to have the
driver loaded after boot), so changing the name of
module is not so fortunate, also considering the
long releases cycle of Debian.
I would like to have a single microcode module for the
two drivers: generic kernel need both (thus reduce
overhead); specialized kernel are configured only with
the relevant driver, so no additional overhead.
