From: Oleksandr Tymoshenko Date: Sat, 23 Mar 2024 06:33:33 +0000 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.
