efi/runtime-wrappers: Run UEFI Runtime Services with interrupts enabled

The UEFI spec allows Runtime Services to be invoked with interrupts
enabled. The only reason we were disabling interrupts was to prevent
recursive calls into the services on the same CPU, which will lead to
deadlock. However, the only context where such invocations may occur
legally is from efi-pstore via efivars, and that code has been updated
to call a non-blocking alternative when invoked from a non-interruptible
context.

So instead, update the ordinary, blocking UEFI Runtime Services wrappers
to execute with interrupts enabled. This aims to prevent excessive interrupt
latencies on uniprocessor platforms with slow variable stores.

Note that other OSes such as Windows call UEFI Runtime Services with
interrupts enabled as well.
