Subject: drivers/firmware/efi/efivars.c: use in_compat_syscall() to check for compat callers

This should make no difference on any architecture, as x86's historical
is_compat_task behavior really did check whether the calling syscall was a
compat syscall.  x86's is_compat_task is going away, though.
