[PATCH] efi: make the min and max mmap slack slots configurable

From: Hamza Mahfooz
Date: Mon Dec 09 2024 - 11:25:36 EST


Recent platforms require more slack slots than the current value of
EFI_MMAP_NR_SLACK_SLOTS, otherwise they fail to boot. So, introduce
EFI_MIN_NR_MMAP_SLACK_SLOTS and EFI_MAX_NR_MMAP_SLACK_SLOTS
and use them to determine a number of slots that the platform
is willing to accept.
