This value is stored in data which appears to be read-only with sandbox on
my Ubuntu 18.04 machine. In any case it is not good practice to store
run-time data in a build-time linker list.

The value does not seem to be that useful, since tests that fail to setup
are likely to fail to run also. Let's drop it for now.

I think I already have this as "efi_selftest: do not write to linker
generated array" in my queue?

Yes that's right, we can drop this.

I still don't really understand why we have this write-to-rwdata problem.
