FYI, this library adds thread support to UEFI:

https://github.com/Openwide-Ingenierie/GreenThreads-UEFI

Note that the library is GPLv2, ...but the author (a 1-person project)
could be asked to relicense to BSD to fit into Tianocore.

Note that library is currently Intel x64-centric, and contains a bit of
assembly. Will need some ARM/RISC-V/x86 contributions.

HTH,
