Subject: [PATCH 1/2] efi: capsule: use atomic kmap for transient sglist mappings

From: Ard Biesheuvel <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 7 Dec 2020 19:02:16 +0100

Don't use the heavy-weight kmap() API to create short-lived mappings
of the scatter-gather list entries that are released as soon as the
entries are written. Instead, use kmap_atomic(), which is more suited
to this purpose.
