[PATCH 1/2] efi_loader: delete handle from events when a protocol is uninstalled

When a notification event is registered for a protocol the handle of the protocol is added in our event notification list. When all the protocols of the handle are uninstalled we delete the handle but we do not remove it from the event notification list.
Clean up the protocol removal functions and add a wrapper which - Removes the to-be deleted handle from any lists it participates - Remove the handle if no more protocols are present
It's worth noting that all our variants of efi_uninstall_protocol_*() and uninstall_multiple_protocol_*() end up calling efi_uninstall_protocol(). We could add the cleanup in that function only, however efi_reinstall_protocol_interface() expects the handle not to be removed.

This would not match the specification.
LocateHandle(ByRegistrationKey) must only retrieve at maximum a single handle per call irrespective of the queue size. LocateHandleBuffer() should do the same.

Yes it would, in fact I tried this on my initial patches and I mention it on the patch description . However the selftests started failing. The reason is that efi_reinstall_protocol_interface() does not remove the handle and we have specific selftests for that. I don't really know or remember why that was done like that, does the EFI spec describe this? I thought UninstallProtocolInterface was always supposed to delete the handle if it had no more protocols

The function should return a status code. Then efi_disk_delete_raw() can return an error for EVT_DM_PRE_REMOVE and stop the device from being deleted.
We agree again, but I am not trying to fix that atm. The reason for the special check and the force flag is that efi_delete_handle() is already doing something similar, which is cwnot optimal, but that's the current state. It bails out only if the *handle* doesn't exist and doesn't care if the protocols got removed. If you prefer having a bigger cleanup + fixes let me know.
