Since this issue does not affect a test machine with nouveaufb, and
plymouth disables use of the drm backend by default on nouveau, I tried
both forcing nouveau with drm and testing intel without it (by moving
drm.so aside). On nouveau I still get a smooth transition from grub to
plymouth, with ei

shell shows that 1280x800 is the preferred mode anyway).

plymouth is in the initramfs or not (i.e., it's reproducible on a test
install that does not use cryptsetup), only the timing is different.
