+Subject: [PATCH 215/215] 10_linux.in: restore existence check in
+ `get_sorted_bls`
+
+This is necessary to handle `/boot/loader/entries` not existing
+at all (or possibly existing but being empty - not sure about
+that case). Without this check, this function gets pretty wacky
+and winds up returning the contents of the current working
+directory, which of course causes whatever called it to break.
+
+Resolves: rhbz#1836020
