Duncan Laurie d31655ba89 gsmi: Remove autoselected dependency on EFI and EFI_VARS
Instead of selecting EFI and EFI_VARS automatically when GSMI is
enabled let that portion of the driver be conditionally compiled
if EFI and EFI_VARS are enabled.

This allows the rest of the driver (specifically event log) to
be used if EFI_VARS is not enabled.

To test:
1) verify that EFI_VARS is not automatically selected when
CONFIG_GOOGLE_GSMI is enabled
2) verify that the kernel boots on Link and that GSMI event log
is still available and functional
3) specifically boot the kernel on Alex to ensure it does not
try to load efivars and that gsmi also does not load because it
is not in the supported DMI table

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
