Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We've run into an issue with the Dynamic Provisioning of the EFS-CSI-Driver due to hitting the limit of the number of access points one EFS can have. Using EFS for EKS doesn't necessarily require using Access Points to persist data right? I think it severely limits the scalability aspect of using EFS in EKS for certain situations with this driver because it would limit the number of PVCs you can provision with it to 120. Any more than 120 then the user would have to create a new EFS with a new storageclass, which is problematic if they are trying to save money using a long term solution and it'll require manual intervention.

Would it be possible to have an option to disable the Access Points if they are not needed by the user to lift this limit?

Describe the solution you'd like in detail
Have an option for the StorageClass in the provisioningMode section to have a different type for non-access point usage. Maybe call it "nfs" or something else.
