efi: fix panic in kdump kernel
[ Upstream commit 62b71cd73d41ddac6b1760402bbe8c4932e23531 ] Check if get_next_variable() is actually valid pointer before calling it. In kdump kernel this method is set to NULL that causes panic during the kexec-ed kernel boot. Tested with QEMU and OVMF firmware. Fixes: bad267f9e18f ("efi: verify that variable services are supported") Signed-off-by: Oleksandr Tymoshenko <ovt@google.com> Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
