     21   This function provides a platform-specific method to detect whether the platform
     22   is operating by a physically present user.
     23 
     24   Programmatic changing of platform security policy (such as disable Secure Boot,
     25   or switch between Standard/Custom Secure Boot mode) MUST NOT be possible during
     26   Boot Services or after exiting EFI Boot Services. Only a physically present user
     27   is allowed to perform these operations.
     28 
     29   NOTE THAT: This function cannot depend on any EFI Variable Service since they are
     30   not available when this function is called in AuthenticateVariable driver.
     31 
     32   @retval  TRUE       The platform is operated by a physically present user.
     33   @retval  FALSE      The platform is NOT operated by a physically present user.
