That's the EFI boot partition. Since that's a specfication written by
hardware guys, EFI using global variables for inter-module communication
and the FAT filesystem (and god-only-knows what other kinds of deficient
1980s technology --- edge-triggered interrupts, anyone?) shouldn't come
as a surprise.

FS-interface for configuring kernel 'security modules'.

'Persistent storage fs' for storing kernel crashdump information such
that it survives a reboot./

The filesystem providing access to the EFI variable service.

Altogoether, some bizarre 'control group filesystem' arrangement chosed
by systemd. 'Control groups' (originally implemented by SGI) support
putting processes in - well - control groups. This is (together with
namespace support) the base for 'Linux containers' virtualization
(another feature systemd usurped[*]).

[*] Disclaimer: I'm getting paid to work on a product which uses this
    technology such that it cannot possibly coexist with systemd. As
    such I'm one of these morally repugnant closed-source developers and
    RedHat using money made from Linux for subsidizing Poettering et al
    breaking out stuff is obviously just what we deserve.

Pseudo-filesystem which is part of the POSIX message queue
implementation.
