Should be two patches. Now I need to quote out of order.

Thus, with this, HighMemDxe loses its only PcdGet call -- I think you
should remove the PcdLib.h #include directive from the C file, and the
PcdLib dependency from [LibraryClasses] in the INF file.

The conversion looks right, at the surface, but could you also test it?

(See commit 90f3922b018e, "OvmfPkg/QemuVideoDxe: Bypass NULL pointer
detection during VBE SHIM installing", 2017-10-11. You'll need a Windows
7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 guest for triggering the debug message.)

Please keep [LibraryClasses] sections, and all other sections in INF
files, alphabetically sorted -- assuming the section is already sorted
pre-patch.

(Unfortunately, in this case, the section is already in disorder; I
failed to catch the original mistake when reviewing the patch that would
become commit 5b2291f9567a, "OvmfPkg: QemuVideoDxe uses
MdeModulePkg/FrameBufferLib", 2016-10-12.)
