I had trouble to get the point. In the next version I suggest to write:

Currently in do_efi_boot_dump() we directly read EFI variables from the
related environment variables. To accomodate alternative storage
backends we should switch to using the UEFI API instead.

This change is correct but unrelated. Please, put it into a separate
patch. Or at least mention it in the commit message.

Same here.

Does the UEFI spec really allow lower case hexadecimal numbers here?
I only found an example with capital numbers. Would this imply that I
could have variables Boot00a0 and Boot00A0 side by side? Which one would
be selected by boot option 00a0?

Or should SetVariable() make a case insensitive search for variable names?

In EDK2 function FindVariableEx() in
MdeModulePkg/Universal/Variable/RuntimeDxe/Variable.c
uses CompareMem() to compare variable names.

Function BmCharToUint() is used to check the digits of boot options and
has this comment:

"It assumes the input Char is in the scope of L'0' ~ L'9'
and L'A' ~ L'F'"

So let's us assume that variable names are case sensitive and Boot
entries can only have capital hexadecimal digits.

So u16_isxdigit() is incorrect.

As we do not check bounds here the function could be reduced to:

return c > '9' ? c - ('A' - 0xa) : c - '9';

But I would prefer one library function instead of the two static
functions which returns -1 for a non-digit and 0 - 15 for a digit.
And a unit test in test/unicoode_ut.c

We can use memcmp() here. This avoids introducing u16_strncmp().

This all can be simplified if we unify u16_isxdigit() and u16_tohex().
Just one function returning -1 if not a hexadecimal and 0 - 15 otherwise.

This change is correct but unrelated. Please, put it into a separate
patch. Or at least mention it in the commit message.
