initramfs-tools ignores the FRAMEBUFFER option. This means that the framebuffer hook will always include the drm modules, regardless of whether it is dealing with an encrypted system or not.

InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-02-16 (37 days ago)

UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) |
[Impact]
initramfs-tools would always include all "framebuffer" drivers/firmware inside initramfs, which was making it ever more huge. In some systems with low memory, that would even prevent systems to boot. kdump, for example, had an impact.
[Test case]
Different systems on different arches were tested. When cryptsetup (or cryptsetup-initramfs) was installed, framebuffer drivers were included in the ramdisk. When not installed, the initramfs was smaller. Systems booted on both cases. Systems with encrypted disks were tested as well.
[Regression Potential]
Systems may not boot because of missing drivers. Users may have a different experience during boot because of missing "framebuffer" drivers.
