Subject: [PATCH -next] efi: Do not include asm/efi.h if not needed

Commit f7d924894265 ("arm64/efi: refactor EFI init and runtime code
for reuse by 32-bit ARM") adds an include of asm/efi.h to efi.c.
This causes a build failure for ia64, where asm/efi.h does not exist.

drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c:28:21: fatal error:
	asm/efi.h: No such file or directory

asm/efi.h does not define or declare anything used by efi.c, thus
including it should not be needed.

Fixes: f7d924894265 ("arm64/efi: refactor EFI init and runtime code for reuse by 32-bit ARM")
