From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@xxxxxxxxxx> Instead of checking whether or not EFI variables are available when creating the superblock, check it one step earlier, when initializing the FS context for the mount. This way, no FS context will be created at all, and we can drop the second check at .kill_sb() time entirely.
