Merge tag 'efi-for-3.9-rc3' into x86/urgent
EFI changes for v3.9-rc3,
* A new config option and efivars module parameter have been added to
allow the efivars pstore backend to be disabled as we're still seeing
issues on machines despite adding heuristics to workaround known bugs.
Distributions now have a way to disable EFI variable pstore code
completely - from Seth Forshee.
* A couple of efivars patches to workaround quirky implementations
of GetNextVariableName() which resulted in machines hanging and
sysfs files being created with garbage names.
