efi/runtime-wrappers: Don't park the worker after a recovered firmware fault
Commit 4b2c033b5bc9 ("efi/runtime-wrappers: retire the worker if a wedged call ever returns") parks the efi_rts_wq worker instead of completing the call if EFI runtime services have been disabled by the time the firmware returns. The assumption is that this only happens if __efi_queue_work() has given up waiting for the call. However, arm64 also disables EFI runtime services when it recovers from a synchronous exception taken by the firmware: efi_runtime_fixup_exception() clears EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES and unwinds the call so that it returns EFI_ABORTED to efi_call_rts(), while the caller is still waiting for the completion. The worker now parks without signalling it, so the caller is stuck for the full EFI_RTS_TIMEOUT of 120 seconds, after which it reports that the firmware is wedged, which is misleading. x86 is not affected, as it signals the completion from its page fault handler before parking the worker. So record explicitly that the caller has given up on the call, and only park the worker in that case.
