Thomas Petazzoni 13b0e6bbf3 package/gnu-efi: disable on mips64el
The gnu-efi package was enabled on mips64el by commit
11b347c03a ("package/gnu-efi: add
mips64el support"). However, it has been failing to build for a long
time, and nobody bothered fixing it:

gnu-efi-3.0.15//gnuefi/crt0-efi-mips64el.S:71: Error: cannot represent BFD_RELOC_16 relocation in this object file format

Even reverting back to gnu-efi 3.0.10, which was the version used at
the time of 11b347c03a, does not fix the
issue. We tested updating to the latest gnu-efi version, 3.0.17, and
the problem still exists.

Since EFI on MIPS is extremely niche, we don't really want to invest
the time to fix this issue, so let's disable it again. If someone
cares enough, it can be fixed and re-enabled.

Fixes:
