after some more commentary from the customer, I'm still not convinced
that this isn't related to the hardware itself, HOWEVER, while doing a
bit more deubgging I noticed that the boot_mode_test.py script opens
files but does not properly close them (expecting python to close them
on exit?)

So while this may or may not resolve the hang that was reported when the
secureboot test runs, I can at least fix this a bit so that we properly
close the files after reading them.

Title:
  Catting the SecureBoot efivar in /sys hangs

Status in Provider for Plainbox - Checkbox:
  In Progress
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  During testing, a machine locked up appearing to hang on the secure
  boot mode test.  Looking at the test logs, both of the things that use
  boot_mode_test.py have triggered this issue:

  miscellanea/reboot_firmware   crashed                 
  miscellanea/secure_boot_mode  crashed 

  as this doesn't do much beyond open up a file in efivars, this is
  puzzling behaviour.  Need to figure out what would trigger this and
  how to work around it.
