This is a bug.  The 'splash' option is configured, but text messages
from the kernel are being shown.

Title:
  Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen, since upgrading
  to Jammy

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not
  as clean as it used to be.

  Basically, the flow used to be in 20.04:

  GRUB > Splash screen > Login prompt

  Currently in 22.04:

  GRUB > Splash screen > Messages (in the attached file) > Splash screen
  again for a sec > Login prompt

  All of those messages already existed in 20.04, the difference is that
  they were not appearing during boot.

  I was able to get rid of the "usb" related messages by just adding
  "loglevel=0" in GRUB. Currently is "quiet loglevel=0 splash".

  However, the fsck related message, I was not available to get rid of.

  Something definitely changed here. To me, these messages are not of
  enough relevance to be shown at boot by default.

  Obviously a minor issue, but important to the whole look and feel of
  the OS for desktop.
