Thanks Ivan

I've suggested some minor fixes and things to check for.

I'd prefer an empty line between declarations and the first statement.

how about breaking out once we found the module, saves some cycles :-)

		while (fgets(buffer, sizeof(buffer), fp) != NULL) {
			if (strstr(buffer, "efi_runtime") != NULL) {
				module_already_loaded = true;
				break;
			}
		}

I see a memory leak. You need:
			if (output)
				fwts_text_list_free(output);

> +			check_module_loaded();

since we discard the return from check_module_loaded() perhaps we should 
just give a hint using:

			(void)check_module_loaded();

I'm going to be pedantic here. We should also check if this is a char 
device too (it is a char device isn't it?), so
	if (!S_ISCHR(statbuf.st_mode) {
		fwts_log_error(fw, "Loaded efi_runtime module but /dev/efi_runtime is 
not a char device.");
		return FWTS_ERROR;
	}


I'm not sure, but will there be a race between the module being loaded 
and the /dev/efi_runtime being created?  We may get some false positives 
here, perhaps we need to be careful.

Add a new line here.

again, we need to free up output if it's not null.

since we discard the return from check_module_loaded() perhaps we should 
just give a hint using:

			(void)check_module_loaded();
