fs/kernel_read_file: Remove FIRMWARE_EFI_EMBEDDED enum
commit 06e67b849ab910a49a629445f43edb074153d0eb upstream. The "FIRMWARE_EFI_EMBEDDED" enum is a "where", not a "what". It should not be distinguished separately from just "FIRMWARE", as this confuses the LSMs about what is being loaded. Additionally, there was no actual validation of the firmware contents happening.
