+ [Original Description]
+ 
  After updating my 22.04 system (possibly caused by Systemd update). And
  now booting, dmesg has two errors:
  
  'mtd device must be supplied (device name is empty)'.
  
  See line 8 and 134 in the included logfile.
  
  The system are booting as it should though, and the system are working
  like it should no errors at all.
  
  Is this maybe caused by 'efi-pstore-not-cleared-on-boot.patch' in
  systemd?
  
  I have an EFI mounted at boot but it isn't used because I have installed
  my system in legacy BIOS mode.
  
  Is this maybe the culprit?
  
  I could ignore the message but it isn't nice though.
  
  Regards
