Is there a reason that you based the patches onto -rc2?

What I tend to do is try and apply the patches onto the existing EFI
'next' branch first. If they don't apply only then will I rebase 'next'
onto a more recent release tag.

This is a habit I picked up from the tip folks, and it keeps the history
much cleaner.

Both of the below commits apply cleanly on 'next' (which is based on
v3.18-rc2). Could you send me another pull request against 'next'?
Thanks!

Borislav, you're renaming the function, not moving it. The rest of the
commit log is fine but how about rewording the title to,

  "efi: Rename efi_guid_unparse to efi_guid_to_str"

I don't think you need to resubmit it, I'd usually fix this up when I
applied your patch, so Ricardo can do that before he resends his pull.

This commit needs a subsystem prefix ("efi:"), and we should probably Cc
Matt Domsch too. Ricardo could you take care of this, unless Peter
objects?
