----------------------------------------------------------------
EFI changes for v3.9-rc2,

  * Make the EFI variable code more paranoid about running out of
    space in NVRAM, since this is the root cause of the recent issue
    where machines refuse to boot - from Matthew Garrett.

  * Some efivarfs patches that fix regressions introduced in v3.9-rc1.
