This bug was fixed in the package linux-firmware - 1.79.16

linux-firmware (1.79.16) precise; urgency=medium
* Remove amd64-microcode for licensing reasons.
The amd64 microcode is not suitable for packaging in main since
the license does not allow modification or disassembly. Install
the multiverse package amd64-microcode instead which also contains
initramfs hooks.
