That fixed it. Thanks for the quick look and patch.

Ordinarily one might use efi=noruntime or noefi to disable this, but the boot augment appears to now be outright ignored (on this system, at least). You might imagine this causes issue on a uboot'd system that does not have runtime services. The manifestation of this bug is an iabt with PC=0 originating in efivar_entry_set_safe. This function eventually attempts to call the NULL entry ops->set_variable.

>> I did not spend too much time poking around, but I did note that if one builds a kernel that forces the efibc_init to return ENODEV to prevent reboot registration, the system will properly consult PSCI to handle the event (as is expected for the rk3399 per the device tree). This observed behavior is accurate at least through 5.9.0-rc4. A test of the previous commit (8778eb0927ddcd3f431805c37b78fa56481aeed9) confirms an uneventful reboot for this device.
>> The board configuration is the RockPro64, which has a device tree present in the kernel sources. My configuration in particular was using the latest Grub to EFI boot Linux after having itself been loaded by uboot.
