The EFI loader support takes around 31kB on an ARMv7 board, which makes us trip across the size limit we've had on the U-Boot binary.
Since it's not an essential feature, disable it by default for ARCH_SUNXI so that we get back some extra room for user customisations.
Does this disable it on aarch64 boards by default such as the Pine64? If so NAK as Fedora, SUSE and I'm pretty sure Debian all use EFI to boot aarch64 devices and this would regress this for all those distros.
This is something that Fedora, Suse and I'm pretty sure Debian can add to their defconfig. These are just default configuration, not one-size-fits-all configuration.
