[PATCH 04/20] efi/x86: map the entire EFI vendor string before copying it

From: Ard Biesheuvel
Date: Fri Jan 03 2020 - 06:40:28 EST


Fix a couple of issues with the way we map and copy the vendor string:
- we map only 2 bytes, which usually works since you get at least a
page, but if the vendor string happens to cross a page boundary,
a crash will result
- only call early_memunmap() if early_memremap() succeeded, or we will
call it with a NULL address which it doesn't like,
- while at it, switch to early_memremap_ro(), and array indexing rather
than pointer dereferencing to read the CHAR16 characters.
