Help text

This driver uses the efi.<service> function pointers directly instead of going through the efivar API, because it is not trying to test the kernel subsystem, just for testing the UEFI runtime service interfaces which are provided by the firmware. This driver is used by the Firmware Test Suite (FWTS) for testing the UEFI runtime interfaces readiness of the firmware. Details for FWTS are available from: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirmwareTestSuite

Say Y here to enable the runtime services support via /dev/efi_test. If unsure, say N.
