Subject[PATCH 17/29] x86/efi: Initialize status to ensure garbage is not returned on small size
Date
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Although very unlikey, if size is too small or zero, then we end up with
status not being set and returning garbage. Instead, initializing status to
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER to indicate that size is invalid in the calls to
setup_uga32 and setup_uga64.
