Leif Lindholm 62c204ddfe fs: Make efivarfs a pseudo filesystem, built by default with EFI
efivars is currently enabled under MISC_FILESYSTEMS, which is decribed
as "such as filesystems that came from other operating systems".
In reality, it is a pseudo filesystem, providing access to the kernel
UEFI variable interface.

Since this is the preferred interface for accessing UEFI variables, over
the legacy efivars interface, also build it by default as a module if
CONFIG_EFI.

help
efivarfs is a replacement filesystem for the old EFI
variable support via sysfs, as it doesn't suffer from the
same 1024-byte variable size limit.
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M
here. The module will be called efivarfs.
If unsure, say N.
