The function is renamed efi_spec_version_format() in the next patch.
Why not call it that right away in this patch?
I'd change the return type to void and make this function copy
"(unknown)" to buf on error. That way you don't have to repeat
that over and over again in the next patch.

Move that check to the top of the function so that you avoid calculating
major and minor in vain if buf is NULL.
