SafeIntLib provides helper functions to prevent integer overflow
during type conversion, addition, subtraction, and multiplication.
Conversion Functions
====================
* Converting from a signed type to an unsigned type of the same
size, or vice-versa.
* Converting to a smaller type that could possibly overflow.
* Converting from a signed type to a larger unsigned type.
Unsigned Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication
===============================================
* Unsigned integer math functions protect from overflow and
underflow (in case of subtraction).
Signed Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication
============================================
* Strongly consider using unsigned numbers.
* Signed numbers are often used where unsigned numbers should
be used. For example file sizes and array indices should always
be unsigned. Subtracting a larger positive signed number from a
smaller positive signed number with SafeInt32Sub() will succeed,
producing a negative number, that then must not be used as an
array index (but can occasionally be used as a pointer index.)
Similarly for adding a larger magnitude negative number to a
smaller magnitude positive number.
* SafeIntLib does not protect you from such errors. It tells you
if your integer operations overflowed, not if you are doing the
right thing with your non-overflowed integers.
* Likewise you can overflow a buffer with a non-overflowed
unsigned index.

The UEFI spec differs between architectures in the minimum alignment
and granularity of page allocations that are visible to the OS as
EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME regions.
So define macros that carry these values to the respective ProcessorBind.h
header files.

Some compilers may define __USER_LABEL_PREFIX__ to determine the
prefix used with ASM_PFX. Otherwise, IA32 will use a single underscore
'_' character, and all other architectures will use an empty prefix.

Original, some code directly judge the value of these macros, but linux ICC compiler will report error as "zero used for undefined preprocessing identifier". So it is better judge whether these macros are defined before accessing their value.
2, Use #if defined() style to replace #ifdef style.
It is good to keep consistent style for this case.
