Michael: Can you give the suggestion about how to install this variable flash info hob when it is required? Because VariablePei is early PEIM, how to make sure the variable flash info hob is installed before GetVariable is called?
On VARIABLE_FLASH_INFO structure definition, the first field is UINT32, other fields are all UINT64. How about reserve 4 bytes after the first field? If so, all fields are at the nature alignment address.
