+Subject: efi: fix panic in kdump kernel
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/62b71cd73d41ddac6b1760402bbe8c4932e23531
+
+Check if get_next_variable() is actually valid pointer before
+calling it. In kdump kernel this method is set to NULL that causes
+panic during the kexec-ed kernel boot.
+
+Tested with QEMU and OVMF firmware.
+
+Fixes: bad267f9e18f ("efi: verify that variable services are supported")
