This issue arises whenever system-logind access the `/sys/power/disk`
file.  Reproduce using `cat /sys/power/disk` and you'll find

    kernel: Lockdown: cat: hibernation is restricted; see man
kernel_lockdown.7

in the kernel log.  This is per-se harmless but does flood the log with
garbage.

Title:
  syslog flooded with "Lockdown: systemd-logind: hibernation is
  restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7"

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  When I close the lid on my laptop, syslog goes crazy with the message

  systemd-logind: hibernation is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7

  repeated ad infinitum, using up all the CPU and GBs of disk space.  I
  am not even trying to hibernate; everything in /etc/systemd/login.conf
  is commented out.  So nothing much should happen when I close the lid,
  but systemd is trying to kill me with these messages.  I am running
  Ubuntu 20.04.
