[PATCH v2 10/10] efi/arm64: ignore dtb= when UEFI SecureBoot is enabled

From: Leif Lindholm
Date: Fri Apr 25 2014 - 12:10:57 EST


From: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@xxxxxxxxxx>

Loading unauthenticated FDT blobs directly from storage is a security hazard,
so this should only be allowed when running with UEFI Secure Boot disabled.
