The secure_boot field cleaned by sanitize_boot_params() when using grub2
linuxefi to load efi stub kernel.
I printed the boot_params->sentinel value, confirm this value is NOT 0
when running grub2 linuxefi path, the entry point is efi_stub_entry. 

On the other hand,
the sentinel value is 0 when direct run efi stub kernel in UEFI shell,
the secure_boot field can keep.

Does that mean grub2 should clean the sentinel value? or we move the get
secure_boot value to efi_init()?


Thanks a lot!
