[PATCH 1/1] efi_loader: path length in efi_dp_from_name()

[PATCH 1/1] efi_loader: path length in efi_dp_from_name()

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

Before this patch efi_dp_from_name() only accommodated a maximum file path
length of 31 characters. This leads to boot failures due to file name
truncation.

Allow arbitrary path lengths.
