The EFI partition (i.e. partition mounted as /boot/efi or the partition
containing /boot, which contains /boot/efi) must have some variety of
FAT filesystem, according to the EFI spec. Windows will normally use
ntfs and Debian by default ext4, and a FAT partition has no other real
use now than for EFI. It may be convenient to put the whole of /boot on
FAT, but Debian will normally leave /boot in the main / partition, and
just use FAT for /boot/efi.
