[PATCH] efi_loader: Don't stop EFI subsystem init if installing TCG2 fails

[Ilias Apalodimas]

Up to now we are stopping the EFI subsystem if a TPMv2 exists but the
protocol fails to install.  Now that we've switched the config to 'default
y' the sandbox TPM fails, since it doesn't support all the required
capabilities of the protocol.

Not installing the protocol is not catastrophic.  If the protocol fails
to install the PCRs will never be extended to the expected values, so
some other entity later in the boot flow will eventually figure it out
and take the necessary actions.
