From: Anisse Astier <an.astier@xxxxxxxxxx>
When writing EFI variables, one might get errors with no other message
on why it fails. Being able to see how much is used by EFI variables
helps analyzing such issues.
Since this is not a conventionnal filesystem, block size is
intentionnally set to 1 instead of PAGE_SIZE.
x86 quirks of reserved size are taken into account; so that available
and free size can be different, further helping debugging space issues.
With this patch, one can see the remaining space in EFI variable storage
via efivarfs, like this:
$ df -h /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
efivarfs 176K 106K 66K 62% /sys/firmware/efi/efivars
Signed-off-by: Anisse Astier <an.astier@xxxxxxxxxx>

Notes:
Patch isn't split per subsystem intentionally, for better understanding
of intent; I don't think it's necessary, but split could be trivial in
an another version.
Changes since v1:
- update commit message to show how it can be used in userspace
- add comments to explain the values put in f_bsize, f_blocks, f_bfree
and f_bavail
- rebase on top v6.4-rc2
Thanks to Christan Brauner for the review.
Regards,
Anisse
