Well so what happened is there is an EFI variable that wasn't cleared
when you installed Ubuntu and used fwupd. There is supposed to be a
systemd unit that would have run to clear it. For some reason it didn't
run on your system and that's the root cause of this problem.
Share the following and we can try to figure out where the problem is:
1) Can you confirm that you don't have a /var/cache/fwupdate/done? I suspect
you shouldn't have one.
2) What is the output of the unit status?
# systemctl status fwupdate-cleanup
3) How did you install Ubuntu? (Live CD, Alternate installer, netinst etc).
