I've installed the 20240410 iso on a couple of machines and this bug is
as good as fixed.
The systemd task would be nice to complete but that's more for the sake
of bug 1914409. Right now I have more important bugs to focus on...

It seems unlikely my all-in-one kernel fix will be accepted upstream.
While I could propose it as an Ubuntu patch, another alternative is to
just let the linux task track bug 2049390 (Fix Committed). Then most
people will only need the above Plymouth patch to get a complete fix.

Seems it's fairly easy to make a working solution in initramfs-tools

I think the delay I'm seeing is a feature of Plymouth, not a bug:
"ignoring since we only handle SimpleDRM devices after timeout"
As much as I dislike it perpetuating bug 1869655, this feature does
prevent bug 2054769 from reoccurring.
But this raises the question: is it worth putting i915, am

Also hooks/plymouth is equally to blame and needs modifying, as
