Fixed disk device name in efibootmgr call for eMMC devices: For eMMC devices the trailing "p" in the disk device name (as in /dev/mmcblk0p that is derived from /dev/mmcblk0p1) needs to be stripped (to get /dev/mmcblk0), otherwise the efibootmgr call fails because of a wrong disk device name. See also #2103
With #2104 merged |

Description of the issue (ideally so that others can reproduce it):
Running
fails to create an UEFI boot entry, since efibootmgr is called with a wrong disk device name (/dev/mmcblk0p). The trailing "p" for "partition" is not being removed.
Workaround, if any:
Manually call efibootmgr with the correct disk device name.
