The patch produces build warnings:

lib/efi_selftest/efi_selftest_variables.c: In function ‘execute’:
lib/efi_selftest/efi_selftest_variables.c:75:10: warning: assignment
makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Wint-conversion]
  data[3] = 0xff;
          ^
lib/efi_selftest/efi_selftest_variables.c:87:14: warning: comparison
between pointer and integer
  if (data[3] != 0xff) {

This is due to an inappropriate definition in my prior patch. Could you,
please, add this change:

-u8 *data[EFI_ST_MAX_DATA_SIZE];
+u8 data[EFI_ST_MAX_DATA_SIZE];

Otherwise your patch is fine.

Best regards

Heinrich
