Thank you for making this change Stefan. I tested your patch locally on my GPU passthrough Windows 10 VM and it successfully fixes it.
I added a "Tested-by:" note inline in your patch.
Thank you,
Shivanshu Goyal
For GPU passthrough support we have to initialize the console after
EfiBootManagerDispatchDeferredImages() has loaded ROMs. This was the
calling order before the TCG physical presence support moved it to
before End-of-DXE since End-of-DXE disables the TPM 2 platform
hierarchy and some physical presence commands would not work otherwise.
To enable user interaction, the console initialization was also moved
to before End-of-DXE. With this fix, the console is now initialized twice
where the second initialization fixes the GPU passthrough support but it
doesn't allow user interaction for TCG physical presence when GPU
passthrough is used.
