Subject: [PATCH 2/2] efi: Allow the number of EFI configuration tables entries to be zero

From: Rob Bradford <robert.bradford@...el.com>

Only try and access the EFI configuration tables if there there are any
reported. This allows EFI to be continued to used on systems where there
are no configuration table entries.
