I noticed efivars was being automatically loaded on boot on my
installed amd64 Jessie, but not on my arm64 Jessie. The
installer/rescue image automatically loads it for both.
Turns out on amd64, efivars is being pulled in as a dependency for
efi_pstore, which is not built for arm64 since CONFIG_PSTORE is not
enabled.

Upstream, CONFIG_PSTORE is not enabled since CONFIG_MISC_FS is not
enabled in the upstream defconfig. In debian, however, CONFIG_MISC_FS
is enabled for all architectures, but CONFIG_PSTORE only for
ia64/kernelarch-x86.

Could we enable CONFIG_PSTORE for arm64 as well, please?
