Ok, I geeked out, and this is probably more information than you need. But it completely answers the question. Sorry. ☺
Locally, I'm at this commit:

When I added FIRST/NEXT/LAST, it was idiomatic but not quite so fast. This makes it faster. Another little bit of masak++'s program.

| Block most UEFI variable deletions | |
| Some systems appear to become upset if certain UEFI non-volatile variables | |
| are delted, to the point of no longer POSTing successfully. For a short-term | |
| fix, let's just block deletion of most variables while we figure out a | |
| better approach. |
Disclaimer: Please follow this guide being aware of the fact that I'm not an expert regarding the things outlined below, however I made my best attempt. A few people in IRC confirmed it worked for them and the results looked acceptable.
Attention: After following all the steps run gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache as root, this prevents various gdk-related bugs that have been reported in the last few hours. Symptoms are varied, and for Cinnamon the DE fails to start entirely while for XFCE the icon theme seemingly can't be changed anymore etc.
Check the gist's comments for any further tips and instructions, especially if you are running into problems!
