Anything any ordinary user can do the superuser ought be able to do, especially
when involving OS, right???
This is not necessarily true, because the kernel decides what 'root' is allowed
to do.
I don't have such an efi mount point right here to test, but a different one
for which
the kernel denies access for root:
$ sudo strace -e newfstatat df -h /run/user/1000/gvfs
newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/run/user/1000/gvfs", 0x55cd2e4c0e50, 0) = -1 EACCES
(Permission denied)
df: /run/user/1000/gvfs: Permission denied

Have a nice day,
