Benign looking fix.  Already applied to Jessie's kernel in Debian.
Pulling this in early so that when the grub2 changes sync we are
prepared.

Title:
  grub2/kernel EFI firware size interface

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Seems that grub2 needs the ability to "size" the EFI implementation it
  is running on.  This is being exposed via the kernel in a patch queued
  for v3.20 (http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.efi/5229).
  This is being taken early in debian under debian #775191 (linux) and
  debian #775202 (grub2) (https://bugs.debian.org/775191,
  https://bugs.debian.org/775202).  Additional discussion is available
  here:  http://blog.einval.com/2015/01/11#Jessie-EFI_5
