[efi] Support versions of shim that perform SBAT verificationshim5
The UEFI shim implements a fairly nicely designed revocation mechanism designed around the concept of security generations. Unfortunately nobody in the shim community has thus far added the relevant metadata to the Linux kernel, with the result that current versions of shim are incapable of booting current versions of the Linux kernel. Experience shows that there is unfortunately no point in trying to get a fix for this upstreamed into shim. We therefore default to working around this undesirable behaviour by patching data read from the "SbatLevel" variable used to hold SBAT configuration. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
