Hi Ard, I found some more issues in the rest of the patches and Kojima-san will have to respin those. This is a straight up fix though of an existing issue. Any chance you can pick it up separately? If you need any changes let me know and I can respin it without the rest of the series Thanks /Ilias On Fri, Oct 13, 2023 at 04:45:38PM +0900, Masahisa Kojima wrote: > From: Ilias Apalodimas <ilias.apalodimas@xxxxxxxxxx> > > If SetVariable at runtime is not supported by the firmware we never assign > a callback for that function.
