Subject: [GIT PULL] x86 fixes for 3.9

Hi Linus,

The following changes since commit 0fbd06761f5c17cc9b20e02af60fd7ee9c895996:

  Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc (2013-04-24 17:10:18 -0700)

are available in the git repository at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-urgent-for-linus

This is exclusively two EFI fixes:

 * The EFI variable anti-bricking algorithm merged in -rc8 broke
   booting on some Apple machines because they implement EFI spec
   1.10, which doesn't provide a QueryVariableInfo() runtime function
   and the logic used to check for the existence of that function was
   insufficient.  Fix from Josh Boyer.

 * The anti-bricking algorithm also introduced a compiler warning on
   32-bit. Fix from Borislav Petkov.
