Thanks for bringing these up. It might be in general useful to backport
these fixes as well.
However, this patchset does one very specific thing: it lifts the x86
kexec_file signature verification to arch-independent and uses it on
arm64 to unify all features (and any existing warts) between EFI
architectures.
So unless I am missing something the fixes you pointed out are
completely independent of this.
Thanks
Michal
