efi: Move some sysfs files to be read-only by root
commit af97a77bc01ce49a466f9d4c0125479e2e2230b6 upstream. Thanks to the scripts/leaking_addresses.pl script, it was found that some EFI values should not be readable by non-root users. So make them root-only, and to do that, add a __ATTR_RO_MODE() macro to make this easier, and use it in other places at the same time.
