Allow efivarfs to partake to resync variable state during system hibernation and suspend. Add freeze/thaw support. This is a pretty straightforward implementation. We simply add regular freeze/thaw support for both userspace and the kernel. This works without any big issues and congrats afaict efivars is the first pseudofilesystem that adds support for filesystem freezing and thawing. The simplicity comes from the fact that we simply always resync variable state after efivarfs has been frozen. It doesn't matter whether that's because of suspend, userspace initiated freeze or hibernation. Efivars is simple enough that it doesn't matter that we walk all dentries. There are no directories and there aren't insane amounts of entries and both freeze/thaw are already heavy-handed operations. We really really don't need to care.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
