[Bug 1921134] Re: SBAT shim 15.4 release

[Julian Andres Klode]

While that is true, we also discovered another regression yesterday
which breaks booting on real hardware: In bug 1934780, we discovered
that Mellanox BF1 SmartNic do not support querying variable storage
info, and hence fail to boot. SUSE discovered similar issues.

I don't think this is ready for releasing yet, and we need another shim.
