Ard Biesheuvel c07d2475f9 selftests/kexec: remove broken EFI_VARS secure boot fallback check 
Commit b433a52aa2 ("selftests/kexec: update get_secureboot_mode")
refactored the code that discovers the EFI secure boot mode so it only
depends on either the efivars pseudo filesystem or the efivars sysfs
interface, but never both.

However, the latter version was not implemented correctly, given the
fact that the local 'efi_vars' variable never assumes a value. This
means the fallback has been dead code ever since it was introduced.

So let's drop the fallback altogether. The sysfs interface has been
deprecated for ~10 years now, and is only enabled on x86 to begin with,
so it is time to get rid of it entirely.

README 

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.
