efi: Check EFI revision in setup_efi_vars (2013-04-24 16:19:01 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
* The EFI variable anti-bricking algorithm merged in -rc8 broke booting on some Apple machines because they implement EFI spec 1.10, which doesn't provide a QueryVariableInfo() runtime function and the logic used to check for the existence of that function was insufficient. Fix from Josh Boyer.

* The anti-bricking algorithm also introduced a compiler warning on 32-bit. Fix from Borislav Petkov.
