    Let's not burden ia64 with checks in the common efivars code that we're not
    writing too much data to the variable store. That kind of thing is an x86
    firmware bug, plain and simple.
    
    efi_query_variable_store() provides platforms with a wrapper in which they can
    perform checks and workarounds for EFI variable storage bugs.
