Subject: [PATCH] efi: move some sysfs files to be read-only by root

Thanks to the scripts/leaking_addresses.pl script, it was found that
some EFI values should not be readable by non-root users.

So make them root-only, and to do that, add a __ATTR_RO_MODE() macro to
make this easier, and use it in other places at the same time.
