kexec reboot fails randomly in UEFI based KVM guest. The firmware just resets while calling efi_delete_dummy_variable(); Unfortunately I don't know how to debug the firmware, it is also possible a potential problem on real hardware as well although nobody reproduced it. The intention of the efi_delete_dummy_variable is to trigger garbage collection when entering virtual mode. But SetVirtualAddressMap can only run once for each physical reboot, thus kexec_enter_virtual_mode() is not necessarily a good place to clean a dummy object. Drop the efi_delete_dummy_variable so that kexec reboot can work.
