This Feature PCD causes PiSmmCpuDxe to catch SMM stack overflow at
runtime, logging a clear error message, and entering a CPU dead loop.
Compared to the chaotic and catastrophic consequences of the stack leaking
into, and corrupting, the SMM page table, a stack guard that is enabled by
default is vastly superior.
We should not require sane platforms to explicitly opt in to this
safeguard; instead, we should require platforms that prefer to live
dangerously to opt out of it.
Stack overflow in SMM might even give rise to security vulnerabilities.

Currently, PcdCpuMaxLogicalProcessorNumber only supports fixed type. There are
some requests on this PCD to support dynamic type also. For example, platform
may dynamically set this PCD to actual processor count to save memory or improve
boot performance.

This new PCD is used to specify the AP C-state value by MWAIT instruction.
More deeper C-state means more longer latency time when APs exiting from MWAIT
state. Platforms need to balance the performance and power saving to find the
proper C-state for APs.
Also, some processor may not ready for the deepest C-state at the beginning.
Platform also could choose the proper chance to place AP into the deeper C-state
by set this PCD before hand-off to OS.

This new PCD is used to specify the AP loop mode during POST phase.
The value 1 means we will place AP in the Hlt-Loop state by HLT instruction.
BSP need to send INIT-SIPI-SIPI to wake up APs.
The value 2 means we will place AP in the deepest C-state by MWAIT instruction.
BSP need to modify the monitor buffer by MONITOR instruction to wake up APs.
The value 3 means we will place AP in the Run-loop state. APs are running.
BSP need to write one semaphore to wake up APs.

Current MtrrLib reserves 2 variable MTRRs for some legacy OS boot (CSM boots)
may require some MTRRs to be reserved for OS use. But UEFI OS boot will not use
MTRRs.
Per Scott's suggestion in
link: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bios.edk2.devel/4099
Add one PCD PcdCpuNumberOfReservedVariableMtrrs to specify the number of
variable MTRRs reserved for OS use. Setting its default value to 2 is for
back-compatibility.

Add module that initializes a CPU for the SMM environment and
installs the first level SMI handler. This module along with the
SMM IPL and SMM Core provide the services required for
DXE_SMM_DRIVERS to register hardware and software SMI handlers.
CPU specific features are abstracted through the SmmCpuFeaturesLib
Platform specific features are abstracted through the
SmmCpuPlatformHookLib
Several PCDs are added to enable/disable features and configure
settings for the PiSmmCpuDxeSmm module
Changes between [PATCH v1] and [PATCH v2]:
1) Swap PTE init order for QEMU compatibility.
Current PTE initialization algorithm works on HW but breaks QEMU
emulator. Update the PTE initialization order to be compatible
with both.
2) Update comment block that describes 32KB SMBASE alignment requirement
to match contents of Intel(R) 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software
Developer's Manual
3) Remove BUGBUG comment and call to ClearSmi() that is not required.
SMI should be cleared by root SMI handler.
