I fail to see the point.  To get the openssl changes merged upstream
you needed engage with the openssl community, and I don't see how a
tianocore openssl repository helps with that.

Now that the changes needed have been identified I'd strongly suggest
to focus on getting the changes merged to upstream openssl instead of
storing them in a tianocore fork.

take care,
  Gerd
