I can boot into Ubuntu and the output of 'sudo efibootmgr -v' is:
BootCurrent:
Timeout: 0 sec
To this point, I am not yet convinced that there is a bug in Ubuntu that
causes this.
For one thing, the issue is far too confused here on this report for me
to make sense of what is going on. The included links to Lenovo forums
do not appear to me as bugs in Ubuntu.
What exactly is the problem?
Are the machines dual installed with Windows 10?
Has there been a recent upgrade to Fall Creators Update? Note that many Lenovo
machines fail to boot or boot to black screen after such an update. Such an
upgrade affects subsequent boots to both win10 and ubuntu.

I also sent an email to Canonical LTD (legal department) explaining the
issue and threatening to take legal action on them. As per my previous
post, I am trying to get their attention. I'll keep you informed.
