Message-ID<pZteO-7Cz-9@gated-at.bofh.it>
UEFI spec 2.5 introduces new Memory Attribute Definition named
EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE. This patch adds this new attribute
support to efi_md_typeattr_format().

I'm not keen on using "RELY" because I don't think it's at all obvious
what it means. "RELI" would be closer, but still could use some
improvement.

Since we turned off this kernel output by default (at least on x86)
because the line length had grown quite long, maybe we should just
embrace it and print "RELIABLE" in full?

Since its meaning is not at all obvious even when printing RELIABLE in
full, couldn't we simply use 'MR' instead? You need the UEFI spec to
make sense of this anyway ... (Same goes for RUN btw, perhaps RT would
even be clearer there)
