This sounds like a kernel issue. The Yoga being a Snapdragon might actually mean it does not support EFI variables.
There is a workaround in the kernel which many other Qualcomm machines use. I think the device would have to be on this list: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/firmware/qcom/qcom_scm.c#L1993-L2019
