Revert "templates: Remove unused version comparison functions"
and add a warning to the functions that they are deprecated.
Removing the functions directly caused a lot of upgrade issues
w/ custom user scripts that called the functions. In Debian and
Ubuntu, grub-mkconfig is invoked as a

This looks reasonable to me, there is some more code there writing to
the grub dir before the disk has been identified:
grub_util_unlink (load_cfg);
and following lines; it may make sense to move them later too, I think
it
loading and starting protocol, so this is more a temporary workaround.

Hi,
after some thinking about device trees and secure boot today, I
pondered if we should just allow wrapping a filesystem image in a
signed PE binary into a "grubext" section perhaps. Use cases can be:
- signed fonts packages
- signed themes packages
- signed device trees
This probably needs
These can be used to register a different implementation later,
for example, when shim provides a protocol with those functions.

Hi,
so I want to bring this discussion here that I had mostly with myself
in the past days on IRC.
As some of you know, we had a couple issues with large initrds in
Ubuntu, Jeremy posted a patch series earlier about mmunlimited.
I wanted to propose a more fine-grained approach, as well as a
work to import.

Code later on checks if variables inside the struct are
0 to see if they have been set, like if there were addresses
in the bootpath.
The variables were not initialized however, so the check
might suceed with uninitialized data, and a new interface
with random addresses has been added. This
