intel-microcode 20190514 does not provide Sandy Bridge (sigs 0x000206d7 and 0x000206d6)

Hi

Do we have a timeline about when Intel will fix this bug?

No, the bug fixing process isn't that predictable. They are actively
working on it and they're occasionally providing status updates in the
upstream bug report:

  https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files/issues/1

The most recent update is here:

Hello,

Release 20190618 is out, and has these updates.

I uploaded it to Debian unstable a few hours agoand we will issue it as a security update as well soon.

I imagine Ubuntu will do the same.
