Hi guys,
The following changes since commit 5189c2a7c7769ee9d037d76c1a7b8550ccf3481c:
x86: efi: Turn off efi_enabled after setup on mixed fw/kernel (2012-10-25 19:09:40 +0100)
are available in the git repository at:

Merge branch 'next' (2012-11-13 21:30:02 +0000)
----------------------------------------------------------------
EFI updates for v3.8
* A new EFI variable filesystem, efivarfs, which addresses the
shortcomings of the old sysfs EFI variable code.
* We now switch to a 1:1 mapped pagetable for all virtual EFI
calls. This is actually a workaround for an ASUS firmware bug
which expects the physical mappings to still be around at runtime.
* Because of the above fix Jan's patch to use EFI for the platform
wall clock can be re-applied (it was originally reverted because
it broke some ASUS machines).
----------------------------------------------------------------
Andy Whitcroft (5):
efivarfs: efivarfs_file_read ensure we free data in error paths
efivarfs: efivarfs_create() ensure we drop our reference on inode on error
efivarfs: efivarfs_fill_super() fix inode reference counts
efivarfs: efivarfs_fill_super() ensure we free our temporary name
efivarfs: efivarfs_fill_super() ensure we clean up correctly on error
Jan Beulich (1):
x86-64/efi: Use EFI to deal with platform wall clock (again)
Jeremy Kerr (3):
efi: Handle deletions and size changes in efivarfs_write_file
efivarfs: Implement exclusive access for {get,set}_variable
efi: Clarify GUID length calculations
Lee, Chun-Yi (1):
efi: add efivars kobject to efi sysfs folder
Matt Fleming (11):
efivarfs: Add documentation for the EFI variable filesystem
x86, mm: Include the entire kernel memory map in trampoline_pgd
x86, efi: 1:1 pagetable mapping for virtual EFI calls
efivarfs: Return an error if we fail to read a variable
efivarfs: Replace magic number with sizeof(attributes)
efivarfs: Add unique magic number
efivarfs: Make 'datasize' unsigned long
efivarfs: Return a consistent error when efivarfs_get_inode() fails
efivarfs: Fix return value of efivarfs_file_write()
efivarfs: Use query_variable_info() to limit kmalloc()
Merge branch 'next'
Matthew Garrett (1):
efi: Add support for a UEFI variable filesystem
Xiaoyan Zhang (1):
x86/kernel: remove tboot 1:1 page table creation code

This is a lambda merge... are the commits in efi-for-3.7 already
upstream? If so, there is no reason to include them in this pull request.
For now I am going to put efi/next into -tip as core/efi. Please let me
know if we should put the efi-for-3.7 into an urgent branch.

Yes, they are already upstream.

OK, thanks. No need to put efi-for-3.7 into an urgent branch.
