eficonfig command reads the all possible UEFI boot options from 0x0000 to 0xFFFF to construct the menu. This takes too much time in some environment, especially for the platform using OP-TEE and RPMB based secure storage. For example, on Socionext Developerbox, it takes more than 30 seconds to draw the boot option menu.
To reduce the time to draw the menu, this patch introduces the maximum UEFI boot option index that eficonfig can manage.
