commit 258dd902022cb10c83671176688074879517fd21 upstream.
When the "block" flag is false, the old code would sometimes still call check_var_size(), which wrongly tells ->query_variable_store() that it can block.
As far as I can tell, this can't really materialize as a bug at the moment, because ->query_variable_store only does something on X86 with generic EFI, and in that configuration we always take the efivar_entry_set_nonblocking() path.
