I was able to reproduce this issue and test a fix. I encountered this error when using Linode's paravirtualized kernel 6.0.2-x86_64-linode157.

Do note, that when I created my Linode account and created a new Ubuntu 22.04 VM, the default kernel was Grub 2 which _does not_ suffer with this issue and you can down/upgrade freely between versions. I assume other Linode kernels suffer a similar issue, but it's not worth it to spend much time finding which ones are affected manually because the fix should be the same for all of them.

The fix is to simply remove all init handling in d/rules. I'll handle the SRU process for each release. I have already included the fix for the in-progress mantic multipath-tools merge[1].
