    Subject[PATCH 19/91] Validate size of EFI GUID partition entries.
    2.6.27-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

    ------------------

    commit fa039d5f6b126fbd65eefa05db2f67e44df8f121 upstream.

    Otherwise corrupted EFI partition tables can cause total confusion.
