Sounds good to me,
Acked-by: Ivan Hu <ivan.hu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

And I will replace the reading RuntimeServicesSupported efi variable by
using efi_test in fwts RuntimeServicesSupported tests.

FWTS will still test those Unsupported Runtime services to check if it
returns EFI_UNSUPPORTED correctly.
Is that could solve your problem?
If I remember correctly, the problem from you is not to test those
marked Unsupported Runtime services. But from the Spec. 8.1 Runtime
Services Rules and Restrictions,
"
Note that this is merely a hint to the OS, which it is free to ignore,
and so the platform is still required to provide callable
implementations of unsupported runtime services that simply return
EFI_UNSUPPORTED.
"
