Subject: [PATCH 1/7] Disable the watchdog timer on EFI platforms

Adding a call to EFI boot services' SetWatchdogTimer(), to disable
the timer on EFI platforms. The UEFI specification requires the
watchdog timer to be set to a period of 5 minutes and armed
when invoking an EFI boot option. If GRUB does not disable the
timer, the platform will be reset if ExitBootServices() is
not called within this time period.
