    EFI: drop copy-in from QueryVariableInfo()'s OUT-only variable bouncing
    
    While be12fcca8b78 ("efi: fix alignment of function parameters in compat
    mode") intentionally bounced them both ways to avoid any functional
    change so close to the release of 4.16, the bouncing-in shouldn't really
    be needed. In exchange the local variables need to gain initializers to
    avoid copying back prior stack contents.
