I don't think so. That bug talks about whether /dev/disk/by-id/ symlinks
are created by udev, whereas our internal fix, which was a backport of
the fix in Xenial IIRC, simply added /dev/nvme* to the set of patterns
that autoselected disks can match.

However, I readily admit my own ignorance of debian-installer, so it may
be related in ways I don't realise.

Title:
  debian-installer on Trusty doesn't work on nvme hard drives

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Preseeded installs to "the default hard disk" don't select an nvme drive, even if it's the only one present. They should.
  This prevents automated installs to machines with nvme SSDs, such as modern laptops and some high-end workstations.
