Sounds like you have the AUR package "systemd-boot-pacman-hook"
installed, which automatically runs `/usr/bin/bootctl update` after
every update of the systed package.

*Why* do you have that installed on a BIOS machine? This command is only
relevant for people who are using systemd-boot as their boot manager on
a computer that uses UEFI, and the error message is quite right in
saying that it cannot find an EFI System Partition for UEFI booting...
on a machine that boots via BIOS rather than UEFI.
