This is just a warning when the initrd is regenerated that some
firmwares might be missing. In this case it's graphics firmware which
has nothing to do with cryptsetup.

Title:
cryptsetup requires newer i915 firmwares that is not included in LTS
20.04.3
Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I've made my packages up to date, and my current linux-firmware version is
for Ubuntu 'focal-updates' (AKA 20.04.3 LTS), which can be shown with the
command below:
########################################################################
$ apt list -a linux-firmware
Listing... Done
linux-firmware/focal-updates,focal-updates,now 1.187.20 all [installed]
linux-firmware/focal,focal 1.187 all
########################################################################
Same can be done for cryptsetup, showing the package is also intended for
'focal-updates':
########################################################################
$ apt list -a cryptsetup
Listing... Done
cryptsetup/focal-updates,now 2:2.2.2-3ubuntu2.3 amd64 [installed]
cryptsetup/focal-security 2:2.2.2-3ubuntu2.2 amd64
cryptsetup/focal 2:2.2.2-3ubuntu2 amd64
cryptsetup/focal-updates 2:2.2.2-3ubuntu2.3 i386
cryptsetup/focal-security 2:2.2.2-3ubuntu2.2 i386
cryptsetup/focal 2:2.2.2-3ubuntu2 i386
########################################################################
However, when installing cryptsetup, it wants newer i915 drivers from newer
linux-firmware, which is not included until Ubuntu 21.04 'hirsute':
