Hmm I think I see the problem, install_devices isn't empty, so the migration must have succeeded, but somehow the symlink /dev/disk/by-id/nvme-eui.ace42e00256632d42ee4ac0000000001-part1
 that should point to your ESP doesn't exist?

Can you verify if /dev/disk/by-id/nvme-eui.ace42e00256632d42ee4ac0000000001-part1
 is a thing, or anything similar next to it in the same directory?

It might be that something is pulling rug from under our symlinks :/

Title:
  grub-efi install device being prompted on upgrade, despite only
  /boot/efi being an option.

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  A family member just sent me this dialog that popped up when they
  installed their updates today. I'm not sure how a regular user is
  supposed to be able to handle what is presented here. Do they check
  the box? What happens if they don't?

  Heck, even I don't know what the proper action is here.

  This dialog box needs to be removed and a safe default needs to be
  applied automatically during upgrades.
