efi_loader: remove efi_exit_caches()

Since GRUB patch d0c070179d4d ("arm/efi: Switch to arm64 linux loader",
2018-07-09) we do not need a workaround for GRUB on 32bit ARM anymore.

So let's eliminate function efi_exit_caches().

This will require Linux distributions to update grub-efi-arm to the GRUB
git HEAD (a tag containing the aforementioned GRUB patch is not available
yet).
