This mutex is not needed. It doesn't protect anything in your code.

This function would be much more simple if you handled the above
condition differently.

Instead of having code in efi_capsule_setup_info() to allocate the
initial ->pages memory, why not just allocate it in efi_capsule_open()
at the same time as you allocate the private_data? You can then
free it in efi_capsule_release() (you're leaking it at the moment).

You are always going to need at least one element in ->pages for
successful operation, so you might as well allocate it up front.

This should be 'true', not 1.

This shuffling and unshuffling of cap_info->index seems kinda crazy to
me because you're treating the current page differently from the rest,
which complicates the error paths too (you shouldn't need
__free_page() *and* efi_free_all_buff_pages()).

Why not make cap_info->index always index the last page? That way you
could do,

	if (!cap_info->page_bytes_remain) {
		cap_info->pages[++cap_info->index] = alloc_page()
		cap_info->page_bytes_remain = PAGE_SIZE;
	}

	kbuff_page = cap_info->pages[cap_info->index];

?

Please allocate one ->pages element here (void *). You need at least
one for this code to work and you can easily free it in
efi_capsule_release() if it still exists. It would also simplfy
efi_capsule_setup_info() immensely.
