Hi Javier, Geert, et al,

I just updated Bug 215001 to reflect that I have tested this new, V2 
patch against 4 systems, one more than last time - 2 BIOS/VGAC and 2 
UEFI - and it works perfectly on all four.

Thanks, Javier, for the excellent work!
I didn't test with non-X86, but the code appears to bypass the patch on 
non-X86, so should work fine for Geert.
