I did not miss your comment. The reason I have kept both the ifdefs is
that we need to include stuff which is needed only when
CONFIG_EFI_CAPSULE_AUTHENTICATE is enabled, and then the rest of the
stuff is needed only when CONFIG_EFI_HAVE_CAPSULE_SUPPORT is enabled.
Not having both the ifdefs would result in build failures. In the
u-boot.dtsi included for the arm arch, I am using a single ifdef,
since we are including only the signature node in that file.
