You could have asked the author of the driver (myself) or the author of
microcode_ctl (Simon Trimmer) before giving your "authoritative" answer :)

The default location is /etc/microcode.dat but distributions are free to
put it anywhere they like, e.g. Red Hat puts it in
/etc/firmware/microcode.dat
