Right, it's been fully converted to sysfs. Just for reference, the resultant sysfs tree looks something like:
/sys | ... |-firmware |-efi |-systab |-vars |- BootNext-xxxx-xxx-x-x-x-x * |-attributes |-data |-guid |-raw_var |-size |- BootCurrent-xxxxxx-x-x-x-x * |- ConOut-xxxx-x-x-x-x-x-x-* ... |- del_var |- new_var
where xxxx-x-x-x-x-x is the GUID.
