[syslinux] [PULL 8/8] efi/multifs: fix misuse of static private information

[Paulo Alcantara]

The get_dev_info_priv() function cannot return a reference of a static
variable since there might be multiple device handles and each one per
logical partition. A typical example of this failure is when a
configuration file contains multifs-path-syntax like, so multifs will
initialised to the first partition found (including its device handle)
and the other ones will be using the same partition to do I/O.
