Subject: efi_loader: reduce noisiness if ESP is missing
X-Git-Url: http://git.dujemihanovic.xyz/%22http:/www.sics.se/static/%7B%7B%20%24style.Permalink%20%7D%7D?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bc4fe5666dae6ab01a433970c3f5e6eb4833ebe7;p=u-boot.git

efi_loader: reduce noisiness if ESP is missing

EFI variables can be stored in a file on the EFI system partition. If that
partition is missing we are writing two error messages per variable. This
is too noisy.

Just warn once about the missing ESP.
