Still needed - fwupd's copy is old and shouldn't be used like that and it will still be required by systemd-boot etc.

Also see my fwupd-efi sr#1042978

Thanks for updating gnu-efi. I'll keep it in Base:System for a while for the further testing.
I found that fwupd is using its own lds to handle the sbat sections. Maybe we don't need the patch in gnu-efi in the future.
