Subject: [PATCH] efivarfs: merge boolean flag arguments

The parameters atomic and duplicates of efivar_init always have opposite
values.  Drop the parameter atomic, replace the uses of !atomic with
duplicates, and update the call sites accordingly.

The code using duplicates is slightly reorganized with an else, to avoid
duplicating the lock code.

Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@...6.fr>

Not tested.  I have assumed that the calls to both variable_is_present and
dup_variable_bug need to be out of the lock.
