[PATCH 28/40] x86/efi: Force EFI reboot to process pending capsules

From: Matt Fleming
Date: Mon Apr 25 2016 - 16:08:25 EST


If an EFI capsule has been sent to the firmware we must match the type
of EFI reset against that required by the capsule to ensure it is
processed correctly.

Force an EFI reboot if a capsule is pending for the next reset.
