[PATCH] efi: pstore: Support late setup with TEE-backed efivars ops

[Val Packett]

On some platforms, EFI variable services only become available when an
appropriate TEE driver is initialized such as qseecom, gsmi or stmm.

This would work fine when efi_pstore was built as a module and loaded
late by userspace, but with CONFIG_EFI_VARS_PSTORE=y this driver would
quit due to non-writable efivars before the necessary driver had any
chance to load.

Listen to efivar_ops_nh notifications and retry the initialization when
writable EFI variable ops become available.
