This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
groovy' to 'verification-done-groovy'. If the problem still exists,
change the tag 'verification-needed-groovy' to 'verification-failed-
groovy'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  MAAS installs fail on systems that have EFI Variables that include a "/" in 
the name.

  Split out of bug 1894217.

  [Test Case]
  $ ls /sys/firmware/efi/efivars | grep ^Boot
  ls: reading directory '/sys/firmware/efi/efivars': Input/output error
  Boot mode select-7683c190-9523-4402-81ff-a11e93dc389c
  Boot0000-8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c
  BootCurrent-8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c
  BootOptionSupport-8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c
  BootOrder-8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c

  The Input/output error is the key symptom. See below to see how that
  percolates up to MAAS install failures.

  [Regression Risk]
  There's a very tiny chance that someone has written code that depends on an 
the -EIO error for some reason. It's hard to guess why such a script would do 
that.
