Add the efi=runtime kernel command line option for all lowlatency UEFI
installs so that the efibootmgr has access to EFI non-volatile
variables. LAT will run the efibootmgr as one of that last steps of the
ISO/pxeboot install to change the device boot order of the host.
When the PREEMPT_RT kernel is enable this is required otherwise we will
rely on the existing boot order of the system, often resulting in a
pxeboot loop.
As reference here is the difference in the std and rt kernel requiring
this change:
$ diff linux-yocto-{std,rt}/drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c
69c69
< static bool disable_runtime;
---
> static bool disable_runtime = IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT);
98a99,101
>
> if (parse_option_str(str, "runtime"))
> disable_runtime = false;
Test Plan:
PASS - Added parameter on a UEFI RT worker install in a H/W lab and
observe that the previously failing post install reboot now
boots successfully.
