Subject[78/94] x86,efi: Check max_size only if it is non-zero.
3.2.46-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>

commit 7791c8423f1f7f4dad94e753bae67461d5b80be8 upstream.

Some EFI implementations return always a MaximumVariableSize of 0,
check against max_size only if it is non-zero.
My Intel DQ67SW desktop board has such an implementation.
