Not only do I have a /boot partition, but I have a /boot/efi
partition.

I probably could get away without using the /boot partition, but I've
been experimenting with btrfs and snapshots and it makes sense to keep
/boot as an ext4 filesystem.  I suspect with the move to XFS it might
be a good idea to keep an ext4 /boot too.
