efivars: efivarfs_valid_name() should handle pstore syntax
Stricter validation was introduced with commit da27a243 ("efivarfs: guid part of filenames are case-insensitive") and commit 47f531e8 ("efivarfs: Validate filenames much more aggressively"), which is necessary for the guid portion of efivarfs filenames, but we don't need to be so strict with the first part, the variable name. The UEFI specification doesn't impose any constraints on variable names other than they be a NULL-terminated string. The above commits caused a regression that resulted in users seeing the following message, $ sudo mount -v /sys/firmware/efi/efivars mount: Cannot allocate memory whenever pstore EFI variables were present in the variable store, since their variable names failed to pass the following check, /* GUID should be right after the first '-' */ if (s - 1 != strchr(str, '-')) as a typical pstore filename is of the form, dump-type0-10-1-<guid>. The fix is trivial since the guid portion of the filename is GUID_LEN bytes, we can use (len - GUID_LEN) to ensure the '-' character is where we expect it to be. (The bogus ENOMEM error value will be fixed in a separate patch.)
