  efivarfs: Rate limit statfs() handler (2026-08-20 14:49:39 +0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
EFI updates for v7.3

- Set a timeout for EFI runtime service completions, and declare the
  firmware wedged if it is exceeded. Note that this requires special
  handling in case the firmware does return after all.

- Rate limit the efivarfs statfs() handler as the QueryVariableInfo()
  runtime service can be costly

- Sanity check the size of struct properties_header on Mac/x86

- Tweak the prototype of efi_guid_to_str()
