[Bug 1870603] [NEW] Dell PC shows boot logo twice whenever Ubuntu boots up.

[Seija Kijin]

Public bug reported:

The Dell logo is tied to the BIOS/UEFI. It should only appear when the
system is powering on. However, whenever I turn my PC on, the Dell logo
appears, and then a purple screen appears, but then the machine returns
to the Dell Logo before actually booting up.

This is a problem and it only happens on UEFI, regardless of whether
secure boot is enabled, disabled, PTT is enabled or disabled.

The boot logo needs to only appear once, yet it does it twice whenever I
boot up ubuntu 18.04, 19.10, and even the latest version of 20.04.

Please address this issue.

Thank you.
