For historical reasons, the VariableRuntimeDxe performs virtual address
conversion on the FVB protocol member pointers of the protocol instance
that backs the EFI variable store. However, the driver that produces the
actual instance should be doing this, as it is the owner, and provides
the actual implementation of those methods.
Unfortunately, we cannot simply change this: existing drivers may rely
on this behavior, and so the variable driver should take care to only
convert the pointers when necessary, but leave them alone when the owner
is taking care of this.
The virtual address switch event can be delivered in arbitrary order, and
so we should take care of this in a way that does not rely on whether this
driver converts its pointers either before or after the owner of the FVB
protocol receives the event.
So let's not convert the pointers at all when the event is delivered, but
record the converted addresses in a shadow FVB protocol. This way, we can
check when the variable driver is invoked at runtime whether the switch
has occurred or not, and perform the switch if it hasn't.
