[SOLVED] Can't mount /efi after updating

I used pacman -Syu and after rebooting I got this error

[FAILED] Failed to mount /efi
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File Systems.

And it put me in emergency mode. So I tried to mount my efi partion to /efi but it gave me this error

mount: /efi: unknown filesystem type 'vfat'.

And here is my fstab

# /dev/sda1
UUID=66D7-29E2        /efi        vfat        rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro   0 2

# /dev/sda2
UUID=af5cec8a-0b5f-4d17-ad75-8b33180ad42c        none        swap        defaults         0 0

# dev/sda3
UUID=e803cf31-9954-4c53-bd57-ef104f7f2b5e          /               ext4          rw,relatime    0 1

Contents of mkinitcpio.conf?

Re: [SOLVED] Can't mount /efi after updating

Okay so I'm going to try downgrading my kernel but how do I find out which packages to downgrade. Because I looked at the wiki and it said to downgrade linux, linux-headers, and any kernel modules. So I looked in /var/cache/pacman/pkg and I didn't find linux-headers only linux-api-headers, and how do I find all of my kernel modules.

Copied over files from /boot to /efi where I had my boot partion mounted and I booted.
