Kernel request 4.4.7 i686

just to say that I build and tested 4.4.12 64 bit kernel and wifi
driver, seems pretty solid, find it at
http://www.zaurus.org.uk/download/toshiba_click_mini_l9w/

one very odd thing, a 32 bit kernel works fine allowing me to run
efibootmgr, but with a 64 bit kernel I get this error:

# efibootmgr -v
efibootmgr: EFI variables are not supported on this system.

I can't modprobe the usual efi* things for some reason.

any ideas?
