I agree. Without knowing many of the details:

The patch references
<https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2594>, and that ticket
is a TianoCore Feature Request. Additionally, comment#0 on the BZ says:

"Two more features are needed to be added to non-volatile variable
services [...] This BZ is for RPMC based solution only".

I think the patch should not have been committed.

Thanks
Laszlo
