I know you're just following the pattern of the existing code, but could
you change these to be more like

if (var->Attributes & EFI_VARIABLE_RUNTIME_ACCESS)

while you're at it? I think that'd be a worthwhile cleanup.

I just sent out an updated patch with this change. The constant names
for EFI variable attribute are pretty darn long and cause line wrap
fairly quickly. I would like to rename those constants from EFI_VARIABLE_*
to EFI_VAR_* and possibly shorten the overall name as well:

EFI_VARIABLE_NON_VOLATILE                       -> EFI_VAR_NV
EFI_VARIABLE_BOOTSERVICE_ACCESS                 -> EFI_VAR_BOOT
EFI_VARIABLE_RUNTIME_ACCESS                     -> EFI_VAR_RUNTIME
EFI_VARIABLE_HARDWARE_ERROR_RECORD              -> EFI_VAR_HW_ERROR
EFI_VARIABLE_AUTHENTICATED_WRITE_ACCESS         -> EFI_VAR_AUTH_WRITE
EFI_VARIABLE_TIME_BASED_AUTHENTICATED_WRITE_ACCESS      -> 
EFI_VAR_TIMED_AUTH_WRITE
EFI_VARIABLE_APPEND_WRITE                       -> EFI_VAR_APPEND

Sounds reasonable?
