I noticed that for efivarfs to work, you're currently relying on having
the firmware still claim that the variable services are supported in the
RT_PROP table so that efi core registers the default ops at subsys init
time (which are later overridden by this driver).

Otherwise efivarfs may fail to initialise when built in:

static __init int efivarfs_init(void)
{
if (!efivars_kobject())
return -ENODEV;

return register_filesystem(&efivarfs_type);
}

module_init(efivarfs_init);

With recent X13s firmware the corresponding bit in the RT_PROP table has
been cleared so that efivarfs would fail to initialise. Similar problem
when booting with 'efi=noruntime'.

One way to handle this is to register also the qcom_uefisecapp_driver at
subsys init time and prevent it from being built as a module (e.g. as is
done for the SCM driver). I'm using the below patch for this currently.

I guess the Google GSMI implementation suffers from a similar problem.

Subject: [PATCH] firmware: qcom_tee_uefisecapp: register at subsys init

Register efivars at subsys init time so that it is available when
efivarfs probes. For the same reason, also prevent building the driver
as a module.

This is specifically needed on platforms such as the Lenovo Thinkpad
X13s where the firmware has cleared the variable services in the RT_PROP
table so that efi core does not register any efivar callbacks at subsys
init time (which are later overridden).
