[PATCH 1/5] efi/capsule: Make efi_capsule_pending() lockless

[Matt Fleming]

Taking a mutex in the reboot path is bogus because we cannot sleep
with interrupts disabled, such as when rebooting due to panic(),

  BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:97
  in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 1, pid: 7, name: rcu_sched
  Call Trace:
    dump_stack+0x63/0x89
    ___might_sleep+0xd8/0x120
    __might_sleep+0x49/0x80
    mutex_lock+0x20/0x50
    efi_capsule_pending+0x1d/0x60
    native_machine_emergency_restart+0x59/0x280
    machine_emergency_restart+0x19/0x20
    emergency_restart+0x18/0x20
    panic+0x1ba/0x217

In this case all other CPUs will have been stopped by the time we
execute the platform reboot code, so 'capsule_pending' cannot change
under our feet. We wouldn't care even if it could since we cannot wait
for it complete.

Also, instead of relying on the external 'system_state' variable just
use a reboot notifier, so we can set 'stop_capsules' while holding
'capsule_mutex', thereby avoiding a race where system_state is updated
while we're in the middle of efi_capsule_update_locked() (since CPUs
won't have been stopped at that point).
