Public bug reported:

Laptop: ThinkPad 13 gen 2
OS: Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS (Noble Numbat) with FDE/TPM

I think I had an update of my laptop running noble of the kernel snap
that made most of the interfaces unavailable. Also, I had to enter my
FDE recovery key at some point during reboot process before noticing the
issue.

In order to fix this, I wanted to fallback to previous kernel through
GRUB entry (how I used to do it). BUT there was only some Ubuntu core
entries. Since I am using FDE backed by a TPM, I think my kernel is then
managed by a snap package.

Even if most interfaces (wifi, ethernet, trackpad...) were not working I
managed to login into the desktop (same for X and Wayland) and had a
terminal and the laptop keyboard working. (even though the laptop
specific Thinkpad features were not functioning: no mute LED, no mic cut
LED...).

Once logged in, I checked kernel version and I was running kernel
6.8.0-56.

I saw I had two available version of the kernel for pc-kernel snap: pc-
kernel 6.8.0-54.56 rev 2247 and pc-kernel  6.8.0-56.58+1 rev 2352.

I suspect pc-kernel 6.8.0-56.58+1 rev 2352 to be problematic.

In order to fallback to the previous kernel, I reverted the current
snap:

```
sudo snap revert pc-kernel
```

After a reboot: I have all my interfaces back with 6.8.0-54-generic and
the problematic version disabled.

```
user@ThinkPad13gen2:~$ snap list pc-kernel --all

pc-kernel  6.8.0-56.58+1  2352  24/stable  canonical✓  kernel,disabled
```
