commit c7b738351ba92f48b943ac59aff6b5b0f17f37c9 upstream.

"filename" is a efi_char16_t string so this check for reaching the end
of the array doesn't work.  We need to cast the pointer to (u8 *) before
doing the math.

This patch changes the "filename" to "filename_16" to avoid confusion in
the future.
