With the introduction of EFI variable support, we also wanted to persist these EFI variables. However, the way it was implemented we ended up persisting all U-Boot environment variables on every EFI boot.
That could potentially lead to unexpected side effects because variables that were not supposed to be written to persisted env get written. It also means we may end up writing the environment more often than we should.
For this release, let's just disable EFI variable persistence and instead implement it properly for the next one.
