** Description changed:
[Impact]
MAAS installs fail on systems that have EFI Variables that include a "/" in
the name.
Split out of bug 1894217.
[Test Case]
Using an OVMF-based VM, create a boot variable with a "/" character. For
example:
- setvar FOO/BAR -guid 8ed72b3f-ad26-4d5c-aa36-38689635cac3 -rt -nv =foo
+ Shell> setvar FOO/BAR -guid 8ed72b3f-ad26-4d5c-aa36-38689635cac3 -rt -nv
+ =foo
Then, in Linux:
$ ls /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/
ls: reading directory '/sys/firmware/efi/efivars/': Input/output error

MTC-eb704011-1402-11d3-8e77-00a0c969723b
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.
