Make variable cleanup go through the fops release mechanism and use zero inode size as the indicator to delete the file. Since all EFI variables must have an initial u32 attribute, zero size occurs either because the update deleted the variable or because an unsuccessful write after create caused the size never to be set in the first place. In the case of multiple racing opens and closes, the open is counted to ensure that the zero size check is done on the last close. Even though this fixes the bug that a create either not followed by a write or followed by a write that errored would leave a remnant file for the variable, the file will appear momentarily globally visible until the last close of the fd deletes it. This is safe because the normal filesystem operations will mediate any races; however, it is still possible for a directory listing at that instant between create and close contain a zero size variable that doesn't exist in the EFI table.
