Beginners Questions • [Software] what means "systems which rely on the initramfs integration"?

https://wiki.debian.org/DebianUpgrade says about "Encrypted Root" this "On systems which rely on the initramfs integration" but as a layman user, which command to run to discover if this my case?

My system drive is using cryptsetup for encrypting whole system drive (except /boot per my understanding). So the ongoing system upgrade (Bullseye to Bookworm) hopefully will not damage my encryption.

After upgrade (no reboot yet), there seems to be problem:

$ sudo update-initramfs -u
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.1.0-25-amd64
cryptsetup: ERROR: sdb5_crypt: Source mismatch

$ grep crypt /etc/crypttab
sdb5_crypt UUID=f... none luks,discard

$ sudo blkid|grep crypt
/dev/nvme0n1p5: UUID="f..." TYPE="crypto_LUKS" PARTUUID="a..."
/dev/mapper/sdb5_crypt: UUID="3..." TYPE="LVM2_member"
/dev/sda5: UUID="f..." TYPE="crypto_LUKS" PARTUUID="a..."

sda5 and nvme0n1p5 has same UUIDs because nvme is a clone of a sda5. sda5 is newer and got upgraded now. Please what to run to fix this?
