I've just updated an old machine from 12.2 to 13.0
(ea31abc261ffc01b6ff5671bffb15cf910a07f4b)

Attaching the /home EBR partition gave me this puzzling error:

# geli attach ada0s5
Enter passphrase:
geli: Provider not found: "ada0s5"
geli: There was an error with at least one provider.

Further investigation showed that there is a symlink from /dev/ada0s5 to
ada0s4+00000001 but geom doesn't recognize ada0s5 anymore.

Didn't find anything about it in the release notes:
https://www.freebsd.org/releases/13.0R/relnotes/

I guess EBR is no longer in wide use, but this is an old installation, as
already mentioned.
