How about the attached additional patch?  Should I be checking the UEFI
version number if such is available?

    efi: Handle secure boot from UEFI-2.6
    
    UEFI-2.6 adds a new variable, DeployedMode.  If it exists, this must be 1
    to engage lockdown mode.

Yes. In pre-2.6, DeployedMode is not a reserved name, and so it may be
possible for someone to slip in a DeployedMode=0 on a secure boot
enabled system to trick the kernel into thinking lockdown should be
disabled.

I think the logic is the wrong way around here. Secure Boot is enabled
if SecureBoot=1 and SetupMode=0, unless DeployedMode=0. So you should
return 0 here if val == 0, but only when running on 2.6 or later.

How does one get the version number?  Unfortunately, searching the document
for 'version' doesn't help as every page has that in the footer:-/

Good point.

There is a 'revision' field in the header ('hdr') of the EFI system
table, so something like

(sys_table_arg->hdr.revision >> 16) > 2 ||
((sys_table_arg->hdr.revision >> 16) == 2 &&
(sys_table_arg->hdr.revision & 0xffff) >= 6)

should do the trick I think

Is this the same as the fw_revision in the system table?

	#define EFI_2_60_SYSTEM_TABLE_REVISION ((2<<16) | (60))
	#define EFI_2_50_SYSTEM_TABLE_REVISION ((2<<16) | (50))
	#define EFI_2_40_SYSTEM_TABLE_REVISION ((2<<16) | (40))
	...

Yes. And in fact, that means my example is incorrect (60 not 6 in the
minor field)
