Keeping the call to fwu_boottime_checks separate allows one to try it out
separately from the u-boot shell, by not
enabling CONFIG_EFI_CAPSULE_ON_DISK_EARLY. Also, currently, the FWU code is
closely tied up with the capsule update code. But in the future, if someone
wants to use the fwu metadata without using the capsule format for the
update, that would be possible with the call being separate. But I agree
that this is a hypothetical case which may or may not happen. If you don't
have a strong opinion on this, I would prefer it be kept separate. Let me
know.
