efivarfs: always register filesystem 



The efivar ops are typically registered at subsys init time so that
they are available when efivarfs is registered at module init time.

Other efivars implementations, such as Google SMI, exist and can
currently be built as modules which means that efivar may not be
available when efivarfs is initialised.

Move the efivar availability check from module init to when the
filesystem is mounted to allow late registration of efivars.
