Title:
  fsck integration is not flicker free

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Install Ubuntu desktop, with full disk LUKS encryption, on an UEFI
  system.

  On boot, ESP & rootfs will have fsck started.

  This flickers briefly that fsck are in progress, although most of the
  time both the ESP and rootfs fsck finish/exit instantly.

  It would be nice delaying to show fsck progress in plymouth until it
  takes a substantial amount of time and/or if there is progress about
  it.

  I.e. ideally it should not be shown if it takes less than a second to
  complete (or some other very quick threshold). As there is not enough
  to time to show the message that the fsck is in progress, for the
  human to read it, before the message is dissmissed again.

  One can see this as a flickerfree boot effort.
