Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 137/142] efi: Do variable name validation tests in utf8

3.16.7-ckt26 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Peter Jones <pjones@...hat.com>

commit 3dcb1f55dfc7631695e69df4a0d589ce5274bd07 upstream.

Actually translate from ucs2 to utf8 before doing the test, and then
test against our other utf8 data, instead of fudging it.
