I would slightly extend the commit message: "It will be called by UiApp (or DeviceManagerUiLib, per commit 13406bdeb5c5)" Not strictly necessary, I just think mentioning it wouldn't be useless. > > Enumerating all possible boot options and creating Boot#### variables > for them is equally unnecessary in the default case, and also happens > automatically in UiApp, so drop that as well. EfiBootManagerRefreshAllBootOption() makes sure we have boot options for everything that we *do* connect. If the "set of controllers we connect" does not change independently of the "set of boot options we have", then I agree removing EfiBootManagerRefreshAllBootOption() as well makes sense. (This condition does not hold on the QEMU platforms.)
