The 'efivars' sysfs interface was removed in commit 0f5b2c69a4cb ("efi:
vars: Remove deprecated 'efivars' sysfs interface"), but the ABI
documentation was not updated properly.
Strip down the documentation file for /sys/firmware/efi/vars to a very
basic description of what the interface was about, add a section about
the rough removal timeline, and inform the reader about the intended
replacement.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
