Yes, it will fail when you build with RENESAS_XHCI_FW_DIR set, until
such a point as that driver appears somewhere. (And since it doesn't
live anywhere right now, I didn't have anything to replace the path
with.)

Subject:
"[PATCH] OptionRomPkg: add firmware loader driver for Renesas PD72020x"

I would prefer to keep generic device drivers out of EDK2 platforms,
but they need somewhere else to live.
