If SetVariable at runtime is not supported by the firmware we never assign
a callback for that function. At the same time mount the efivarfs as
RO so no one can call that. However, we never check the permission flags
when someone remounts the filesystem as RW. As a result this leads to a
crash looking like this:
$ mount -o remount,rw /sys/firmware/efi/efivars
$ efi-updatevar -f PK.auth PK

Fix this by adding a .reconfigure() function to the fs operations which
we can use to check the requested flags and deny anything that's not RO
if the firmware doesn't implement SetVariable at runtime.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
