Linus Torvalds ab17c0cd37 EFI efivars sysfs interface removal
Remove the obsolete 'efivars' sysfs based interface to the EFI variable
 store, now that all users have moved to the efivarfs pseudo file system,
 which was created ~10 years ago to address some fundamental shortcomings
 in the sysfs based driver.
 
 Move the 'business logic' related to which EFI variables are important
 and may affect the boot flow from the efivars support layer into the
 efivarfs pseudo file system, so it is no longer exposed to other parts
 of the kernel.
