systemd-efi-boot-generator Generator for automatically mounting the EFI System Partition used by the current boot to `/boot`

`/usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-efi-boot-generator`

## Description

`systemd-efi-boot-generator` is a generator that automatically creates mount and automount units for the EFI System Partition (ESP), mounting it to `/boot`. Note that this generator will execute no operation on non-EFI systems, on systems where the boot loader does not communicate the used ESP to the OS, on systems where `/boot` is an explicitly configured mount (for example, listed in fstab 5) or where the `/boot` mount point is non-empty. Since this generator creates an automount unit, the mount will only be activated on-demand, when accessed.

`systemd-efi-boot-generator` implements systemd.generator 7.
