x86/efi: Remove unused efi_get_time function (2016-06-23 14:32:14 +0100)
----------------------------------------------------------------
* Improve error messages in the efibc driver by providing more
information about why the errors occurred - Jeremy Compostella
* Document the formatting of the EFI GUID constants - Peter Jones
* Remove an unused variable to fix a clang build warning - Colin King

function pointers outside of efi.systab->runtime, e.g. during
SGI/UV BIOS and EFI mixed mode calls - Alex Thorlton
* Remove the unused efi_get_time() function which also suffers from
the 32-bit time_t overflow in 2038 issue - Arnd Bergmann
