I have not seen this reported yet but this breaks arm allyesconfig and
allmodconfig when CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN is force selected (because CONFIG_EFI
will actually be enabled):

$ cat le.config
CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN=n

$ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=le.config allyesconfig drivers/firmware/efi/mokvar-table.o
