efi: efivars: limit availability to X86 builds
CONFIG_EFI_VARS controls the code that exposes EFI variables via sysfs entries, which was deprecated before support for non-Intel architectures was added to EFI. So let's limit its availability to Intel architectures for the time being, and hopefully remove it entirely in the not too distant future. While at it, let's remove the module alias so that the module is no longer loaded automatically. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
