Subject: [PATCH v2 01/12] efivars: move efivars globals into struct efivars

In preparation for abstracting out efivars to be usable by other similar
variable services, move the global lock, list and kset into a structure.
Later patches will change the scope of 'efivars' and have it be passed
by function argument.
