that assumes the SMRAM reserved range is only at the end of the SMRAM descriptor.
//
// This range has reserved area, calculate the left free size
//
gSmmCorePrivate->SmramRanges[Index].PhysicalSize = SmramResRegion->SmramReservedStart - gSmmCorePrivate->SmramRanges[Index].CpuStart;
Imagine the following scenario where we just reserve the first page of the SMRAM range:
SMRAM Descriptor:
Start: 0x80000000
Size: 0x02000000
Reserved Range:
Start: 0x80000000
Size: 0x00001000
In this case the adjustment to the SMRAM range size yields zero: ReservedStart - SMRAM Start is 0x80000000 - 0x80000000 = 0.
So even though most of the range is still free the IPL code decides its unusable.
The problem comes from the email thread: [edk2] PiSmmIpl SMRAM Reservation Logic.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bios.tianocore.devel/15268
Also to follow the idea in the email thread, the patch is to
1. Keep only one copy of full SMRAM ranges in gSmmCorePrivate->SmramRanges,
split record for SmmConfiguration->SmramReservedRegions and SMM Core that
will be marked to be EFI_ALLOCATED in gSmmCorePrivate->SmramRanges.
2. Handle SmmConfiguration->SmramReservedRegions at beginning of, at end of,
in the middle of, or cross multiple SmramRanges.

Per PI spec all allocation of SMRAM should use EfiRuntimeServicesCode or EfiRuntimeServicesData.
So SMM instance use EfiRuntimeServicesCode as the default memory allocation type instead of EfiBootServicesData.
This patch clarify this usage in comments.

from FullSmramRanges and FullSmramRangeCount in SmmCorePrivate by Constructor.
It can avoid potential first call to FreePool() -> BufferInSmram() ->
if (mSmramRanges == NULL) { GetSmramRanges();} ->
gBS->LocateProtocol() at boottime with >= TPL_NOTIFY or
after ReadyToLock or at OS runtime.
