Although we have seen this only on UC22, it potentially can affect classic systems as well, as systemd-pstore.service is re-tried there a few times too. See https://github.com/snapcore/core-base/issues/72 for more details. A fix for this is available upstream: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/9625350e5381a68c1179ae4581e7586c206663e1 [Test Plan] Start the device and check that there is no modprobe-pstore related failed service. This is racy, so a few tries will be needed to make sure things are fine. [Where problems could occur] The modprobe services are usually dependencies from other services, so it should be fine if the retry behavior is controlled by those other services. Risk should be small. If something goes wrong we might see a lot of restarts for these services. [Other Info] Testing should happen on UC22 too.
