I had sent out a query on this before and didn't see any response. The core of
the issue I am trying to solve it support variable services on a UFS device.
When the UFS blockIO is invoked from variable services it is not allowed (which
does align from the UEFI spec perspective but does not allow me to implement
variables services on UFS)
The other way that worked was lowering the lock TPL level in the PCD driver
and Variable down to callback. The PCD one seems like it should be done as
variable services is supposed to only be called from <= TPL_CALLBACK. However,
I was worried about that having a larger system impact on that change.
