efi_loader: Avoid emitting efi_var_buf to .GOT
Atish reports that on RISC-V, accessing the EFI variables causes
a kernel panic. An objdump of the file verifies that, since the
global pointer for efi_var_buf ends up in .GOT section which is
not mapped in virtual address space for Linux.

With the patch applied:

On arm64 this works, because there's no .GOT entries for this
and everything is converted to relative references.
* objdump -dr (identical pre-post patch, only the new function shows up)

So let's switch efi_var_buf to static and create a helper function for
anyone that needs to update it.
