efi/x86: Use non-blocking SetVariable() for efi_delete_dummy_variable()
Presently, efi_delete_dummy_variable() uses set_variable() which might block, which the scheduler is rightfully upset about when used from the idle thread, producing this splat: "bad: scheduling from the idle thread!" So, make efi_delete_dummy_variable() use set_variable_nonblocking(), which, as the name suggests, doesn't block.
