[PATCH v5 12/14] efi_loader: Avoid using sandbox virtio devices

[Simon Glass]

While sandbox supports virtio it cannot support actually using the block
devices to read files, since there is nothing on the other end of the
'virtqueue'.

A recent change makes EFI probe all block devices, whether used or not.
This is apparently required by EFI, although it violates U-Boot's
lazy-init principle.

We cannot just drop the virtio devices as they are used in sandbox tests.

So for now just add a special case to work around this.

The eventual fix is likely adding an implementation of
virtio_sandbox_notify() to actually do the block read. That is tracked
in [1].
