[Bug 1971165] [NEW] Upgrade from 20.04 to 22.04 failed due to efi partition naming

[Tony Middleton]

Public bug reported:

I recently upgraded a Ubuntu Budgie system from 20.04 to 22.04 the
upgrade worked fine apart from one problem.

The original system had two EFI partitions mounted at /boot/efia &
/boot/efib.   Grub is quite happy with this and updates both.  However
do-release-upgrade failed early on because EFI wasn't mounted at
/boot/efi.  I changed the mount points and reran do-release-upgrade and
everything worked fine,  including installing grub to both EFI
partitions.

The evidence collected by report-bug may be of little use because it
comes from the upgraded system,  not the original.
