There's two issues. The first of which is that I think you need to
re-check your error exactly? With my series, and LTO also disabled the
problem is a call to efi_get_image_parameters() as that's defined in
cmd/bootefi.c, but also only used with cmdline invocations. So we can
fix that CMDLINE=n && LTO=n case with a IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CMDLINE)
around that, and then discard efi_dp_from_name() entirely.

The second issue is that with LTO we more completely find the cases
where if x() calls y() and y() is undefined but nothing calls x() we can
just discard x() and not care that y() is undefined.
