Hi Jaben,

No, we can't. InternalCharToUpper() is declared internally in BaseLib and 
unexported.

The comment above the declaration in UefiShellLevel2CommandsLib.c explains it:

/**
  Be lazy and borrow from baselib.

  @param[in] Char   The character to convert to upper case.

  @return Char as an upper case character.
**/

Thanks,
Paulo

Are we redefining a function from BaseLib?  Why not remove the redundant 
definition instead of making it match?
