Subject: bootctl: add description and ret_slot parameters to install_boot_option()
X-Git-Tag: v261-rc1~24^2~4
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bb520fd6a578263cf6394733a5f316d0255a787a;p=thirdparty%2Fsystemd.git

bootctl: add description and ret_slot parameters to install_boot_option()

This moves creation of the EFI boot option description out of
install_boot_option and into the caller, and adds a ret_slot output
parameter for capturing the assigned BootOrder slot. This allows reusing
the function for installing variables with different descriptions.
