Xubuntu 18.10 with encrytion fails to boot with kernel > 4.18.0-10

[Oliver Etchebarne]

Xubuntu 18.10 64bit installation with "Encrypt the new Xubuntu installation for security" option checked runs normally, and also boots without problem.

Then, if you perform an dist-upgrade, which result in a new kernel installed, and reboot, at the boot after a few seconds the message 'Gave up waiting for suspend/resume device" shows up, followed by a 'ALERT! /dev/mapper/xubuntu--vg-root does not exists. Dropping to a shell!'.

Using the GRUB menu, choosing 'Advanced options for Ubuntu', selecting 'Ubuntu, with Linux 4.18.0-10-generic' (and only with that version) the system boots normally, asking me for the password, etc.

Tested with every other kernel version, none worked. Tested on a Toshiba Satellite C55-B and Virtualbox 5.2.18_Ubuntu r123745

Ubuntu 18.10 (cosmic) reached end-of-life on July 18, 2019.

Please advise if still an issue with a currently supported release of Ubuntu.
