The IsValidWorkSpace() function checks if the working block header of the
workspace is valid. A mismatch detected by this function is not
necessarily an error; it can happen with an as-yet unwritten flash chip,
which is e.g. common and normal when a new ArmVirtQemu virtual machine is
booted. Therefore downgrade the message emitted by IsValidWorkSpace() from
EFI_D_ERROR to EFI_D_INFO, and change the wording from "error" to
"mismatch".
The only caller of IsValidWorkSpace(), InitFtwProtocol(), handles all of
the following cases:
(1) IsValidWorkSpace() succeeds for the working block -- this is normal
operation,
(2) IsValidWorkSpace() fails for the working block, but succeeds for the
spare block -- InitFtwProtocol() then restores the working block from
the spare block,
(3) IsValidWorkSpace() fails for both the working and spare blocks --
InitFtwProtocol() reinitializes the full workspace.
In cases (2) and (3), InitFtwProtocol() logs additional messages about the
branch taken. Their current level is EFI_D_ERROR, but the messages are
arguably informative, not necessarily error reports.
Downgrade these messages from EFI_D_ERROR to EFI_D_INFO, so that they
don't clutter the debug output when the PcdDebugPrintErrorLevel mask only
enables EFI_D_ERROR (i.e., in a "silent" build).
These messages have annoyed / confused users; see for example:

1. Work space and spare block must be in a FVB with FV header.
Updated to work space and spare block could be in independent FVBs that are without FV header.
2. NV region, work space and spare block must have same BlockSize.
Updated to NV region, work space and spare block could have different BlockSize.
3. Works space size must be <= one block size.
Update to work space size could be <= one block size (not span blocks) or > one block size (block size aligned).

PEI variable implementation checks only the variable header signature for validity. This does not seem robust if system crash occurred during previous Reclaim() operation. If the crash occurred while FTW was rewriting the variable FV, the signature could be valid even though the rest of the FV isn't valid.
Solution: Add a FaultTolerantWritePei driver to check and provide the FTW last write status, then PEI variable and early phase(before FTW protocol ready) of DXE variable can check the status and determine if all or partial variable data has been backed up in spare block, and then use the backed up data.
