Dear Maintainer,
as I was trying to use an Ubuntu image for autopkgtest that can only be
booted with UEFI, I recognized that it was not booting since it was
using SeaBIOS even though I used --efi or --boot=efi option.
After debugging I found out that the new_session function in
autopkgtest_qemu.py does not pass efi_code and efi_data to the
QemuSession. After passing those variables, the image boots with UEFI.
These are the changes the I made:
