Summary

The SFN driver's PartitionControl WMI object requires an API to parse
and filter partition data in TLV format, particularly for the Dynamic
Config partition. The ef10_nvram_buffer functions provide this
functionality but are tied to use with license partition only.
Modify functions so they are applicable to all TLV partitions and add
functions to support in-place tag modification.
