Changes for complying to EFI spec ยง3.5.1.1
'Removable Media Boot Behavior'.
Boot variables can be automatically generated during a removable
media is probed. At the same time, unused boot variables will be
detected and removed.
Please note that currently the function 'efi_disk_remove' has no
ability to distinguish below two scenarios
a) Unplugging of a removable media under U-Boot
b) U-Boot existing and booting an OS
%s/existing/exiting/
Thus currently the boot variables management is not added into
'efi_disk_remove' to avoid boot options being added/erased
repeatedly under scenario b) during power cycles
See TODO comments under function 'efi_disk_remove' for more details

b) ExitBootServices() invoked or booting an operating system
I will fix this when merging.
