Patch-mainline: v3.8
References: bnc#808680
Target: openSUSE 12.3
Instead of returning -ENOSPC if efivarfs_get_inode() fails we should
be returning -ENOMEM, since running out of memory is the only reason
it can fail. Furthermore, that's the error value used everywhere else
in this file. It's also less likely to confuse users that hit this
error case.
