This chapter defines a file-format for EFI variables that both the firmware
and the operating system can rely on.

The path of the file will be related to the operating system via the Devicetree
as UTF-8 string ``/chosen/efivarfile``.

.. warning::
The Devicetree node name and contents are not final at this point and are
subject to change.

The string will likely contain a part identifying a filesystem uniquely,
followed by a comma and followed by a file path in the identified filesystem.
For example: "UUID=1234:45678,/ubootefi.var".

All integer fields are stored in little-endian byte order.
