Pull EFI updates from Ard Biesheuvel:

- Expose the OVMF firmware debug log via sysfs

- Lower the default log level for the EFI stub to avoid corrupting any
splash screens with unimportant diagnostic output

* tag 'efi-next-for-v6.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/efi/efi:
efi: add API doc entry for ovmf_debug_log
efistub: Lower default log level
efi: add ovmf debug log driver
