Thanks for checking! Which extra check, IsInit? It’s just a weirdly abstract 
shortcut to not go through protocol lookup again when it already succeeded 
before.

We can probably merge it as-is for now. Though, would you mind commenting on 
this: https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/100348 (the first part, about 
static linking)? Thanks!
