I'll second this as a problem. Have been testing 'snponly.efi' and I'm not sure
the circumstances, but occasionally linux will error about trying to exit boot
services, and esxi pretty much always hangs trying to exit boot services (also
some 'keyboard errors' are printed early on) when booted from snponly.efi.
This change does seem to sidestep it. I don't know enough to gauge the cleaner
approach (to my inexperienced eyes, it would be equivalent to just deleting the
TPL lines from the timer function) nor do I have familiarity with the problem
that required those lines in the first place.
