Putting 'entry' on the stack leads to the following build warning,

 drivers/firmware/efi/efibc.c: In function ‘efibc_set_variable’:
 drivers/firmware/efi/efibc.c:53:1: warning: the frame size of 2192 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

That's a big object.

Given that efibc_reboot_notifier_call() can only be invoked once,
could we just statically allocate 'entry' instead?
