Title:
  Consistent DEP8/s390x failure: boot notice unexpectedly in journalctl
  logs

Status in rsyslog package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  There is a consistent autopkgtest failure in s390x only, where the
  logcheck test fails because there is an unexpected boot notice in the
  output[1]:

  At some point I thought it was related to the new apparmor rules that now allow reading some systemd files, but the test last worked, and started failing, with the same rsyslog version, so nothing changed in rsyslog itself.

  
  Last pass:
  8.2412.0-2ubuntu1	postgresql-common/274		2025-02-22 22:37:20 UTC	0h 28m 43s	-	pass	da643947-4f61-4567-97ff-930a77206d06	log   artifacts  	

  
  First failure after that:
  8.2412.0-2ubuntu1	systemd/257.3-1ubuntu2 glibc/2.41-1ubuntu1 php-twig/3.20.0-2 samba/2:4.21.4+dfsg-1ubuntu1 symfony/6.4.18+dfsg-1ubuntu1 tinysparql/3.8.2-3		2025-02-24 19:30:36 UTC	0h 10m 13s	-	fail	74381588-1934-40f9-b06a-831634f68bdb	log   artifacts

  
  It also fails with other triggers, simpler ones:
  8.2412.0-2ubuntu1	krb5/1.21.3-4ubuntu2		2025-02-26 03:56:06 UTC	0h 12m 30s	-	fail	90d5a082-37fe-4859-8044-4973c5d68202	log   artifacts 

  
  And a migration-reference/0 run from a few days before also failed, with the same error:
  8.2412.0-2ubuntu1	migration-reference/0		2025-02-20 01:14:47 UTC	0h 10m 33s	-	fail	d7415807-95c5-4bc6-8fb2-0a4c3dc1b3f6	log   artifacts
