Bug#731709: Updated EFI patch



In regards to the point in the binary build stage sequence at which your
new code executes the efi script, and the below quoted comment besides
it, I'm curious about what exactly you are worried about that prompted it?

"After includes/hooks because it copies in efi.img files that can be
overriden by binary_includes and modified by binary_hooks"

Do you have examples of existing hooks/includes which actually clash
with the new files? Or are you simply worried about a user adding an
include/hook which overwrites/deletes a file and thus breaks their image?

If the latter, then I really don't agree that it's an issue. The
includes and hooks scripts are there to allow last minute customisations
before compiling the image, and if a user foolishly misuses them to
break their image, then that's on them.
