User: [email protected]
Usertags: ftcbfs
fwupd-efi fails to cross build from source, because it uses the build
architecture compiler for building efi components. It actually has two
compiler variables and the efi-cc one is not default initialized to the
host compiler, so it happens to pick the build architecture one. Please
consider applying the attached patch to fix the cross build.
