Because of system-specific EFI firmware limitations,
EFI volatile variables may not be capable of holding the
required contents of the Machine Owner Key (MOK) certificate
store. Therefore, an EFI boot loader may pass the MOK certs
via a EFI configuration table created specifically for this
purpose to avoid this firmware limitation.

An EFI configuration table is a much more primitive mechanism
compared to EFI variables and is well suited for one-way passage
of static information from a pre-OS environment to the kernel.

This patch adds the support to load certs from the MokListRT
entry in the MOK variable configuration table, if it's present.
The pre-existing support to load certs from the MokListRT EFI
variable remains and is used if the EFI MOK configuration table
isn't present or can't be successfully used.
