The original patch is from Ben Hutchings's contribution to debian kernel. Got Ben's permission to remove the code of efi-pstore.c and send to linux-efi: https://github.com/BlankOn/linux-debian/blob/master/debian/patches/features/all/efi-autoload-efivars.patch efivars is generally useful to have on EFI systems, and in some cases it may be impossible to load it after a kernel upgrade in order to complete a boot loader update. At the same time we don't want to waste memory on non-EFI systems by making them built-in. Instead, give them module aliases as if they are platform drivers, and register a corresponding platform device whenever EFI runtime services are available. This should trigger udev to load them.
