- * In order to prevent deadlocks under NMI, the wrappers for these functions
- * may only grab the efi_runtime_lock or rtc_lock spinlocks if !efi_in_nmi().
- * However, not all of the services listed are reachable through NMI code paths,
- * so the the special handling as suggested by the UEFI spec is only implemented
- * for QueryVariableInfo() and SetVariable(), as these can be reached in NMI
- * context through efi_pstore_write().
