Tell HN: Windows 11 update erases Linux boot entries

Yesterday I've had the misfortune of letting windows do the chunky 22H2 update, simultaneously with actually useful BIOS update. Mind you, it didn't break anything immediately.

Today, after at least two reboot cycles between windows and linux, refind gave an "Invalid loader files" error upon choosing linux. Okay, maybe windows didn't finish its update -> do more windows updates -> linux entry is completely gone.

Can't even say I'm back to pirating, just beware
