*** Bug 1348987 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I was able to reproduce on an amd-dinar system by adding the dis_ucode_ldr on the kernel command line, here is the before/after output. After the fix the service is inactive with no failures as the ConditionPathExists=/sys/devices/system/cpu/microcode/reload was not met
