Title:
  Display flickers (monitor loses signal briefly) during "flickerfree"
  boot, while showing the BIOS logo on a black background

Status in Plymouth:
  Unknown
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am trying flickerfree boot in 19.10 [1], but find it actually
  flickers part way through:

    1. BIOS logo on a black background.
    2. Display mode resets, no image on a black background briefly.
    3. BIOS logo on a black background.

  The flicker occurs seemingly during kernel startup since my
  peripherals are lit up before the problem occurs.

  Suspecting this might be related to FB handover:

    [    2.751028] fb0: switching to inteldrmfb from EFI VGA

  I tried disabling that with a big hammer:

    i915.modeset=0

  so it stays in efifb, and that works -- no more flickering, providing
  I don't let i915 take over the framebuffer.
