Dave,

I have pushed these to efi/next: please double check if I did it
correctly. I had some trouble applying these given that I rebased
efi/next onto -rc4. However, the fact that you are not using standard
git cover letters and emails doesn't help things, so could you
*please* use standard git send-email to post to linux-efi in the
future? Thanks.

Ard.
