The proper solution for this kind of error is to make as many as possible instances of "mExitBootServicesEvent" in edk2 STATIC.
See for example commit 7b13510f2a0a ("MdeModulePkg/BootMaintenanceManagerUiLib: hide library-internal symbol", 2016-05-17).
In particular, this patch renames three instances of mExitBootServicesEvent, but there are more:
- IntelFrameworkModulePkg/Library/SmmRuntimeDxeReportStatusCodeLibFramework/SmmRuntimeDxeSupport.c
- IntelFrameworkModulePkg/Universal/StatusCode/DatahubStatusCodeHandlerDxe/DatahubStatusCodeHandlerDxe.c
- IntelFsp2WrapperPkg/FspWrapperNotifyDxe/FspWrapperNotifyDxe.c
- MdeModulePkg/Universal/Acpi/FirmwarePerformanceDataTableDxe/FirmwarePerformanceDxe.c
- MdeModulePkg/Universal/StatusCodeHandler/RuntimeDxe/StatusCodeHandlerRuntimeDxe.c
Based on a brief investigation, it seems like the "STATIC" approach should work for all 8 (eight) files above. But, minimally, STATIC should be employed with library instances.
I seem to remember that there used to be debugging issues with Visual Studio if global variables were made STATIC -- but I think that only applied to old (no longer supported by edk2?) Visual Studio versions. If you can't use STATIC here, please at least explain why, in the commit messages.
Thanks,
Laszlo

Thanks for your particular comments. I used to receive a comment to suggest me to make some global variable as 'STATIC'. But I consider the variable as the component scope that the variable may be used by the other files in the component. I forgot to consider the namespace collisions.
Agree with you, the variable such as 'mExitBootServicesEvent' is only used to create an event and close and it is useless for other files. All such variables should add a 'STATIC' description for them. I would update all the files your mentioned to decrease the namespace collisions.
Thanks,
Zhichao
