efivars: only check for duplicates on the registered list
variable_is_present() accesses '__efivars' directly, but when called via
gsmi_init() Michel reports observing the following crash,
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
IP: variable_is_present+0x55/0x170
Call Trace:
register_efivars+0x106/0x370
gsmi_init+0x2ad/0x3da
do_one_initcall+0x3f/0x170
The reason for the crash is that '__efivars' hasn't been initialised nor
has it been registered with register_efivars() by the time the google
EFI SMI driver runs. The gsmi code uses its own struct efivars, and
therefore, a different variable list. Fix the above crash by passing
the registered struct efivars to variable_is_present(), so that we
traverse the correct list.
