PiSmmCpuDxeSmm consumes SmmAttributesTable and setup page table:
1) Code region is marked as read-only and Data region is non-executable,
if the PE image is 4K aligned.
2) Important data structure is set to RO, such as GDT/IDT.
3) SmmSaveState is set to non-executable,
and SmmEntrypoint is set to read-only.
4) If static page is supported, page table is read-only.
We use page table to protect other components, and itself.
If we use dynamic paging, we can still provide *partial* protection.
And hope page table is not modified by other components.
The XD enabling code is moved to SmiEntry to let NX take effect.

So that we can use write-protection for code later.
This is REPOST.
It includes the bug fix from "Paolo Bonzini" <pbonzini@redhat.com>:
Title: fix generation of 32-bit PAE page tables
"Bits 1 and 2 are reserved in 32-bit PAE Page Directory Pointer Table
Entries (PDPTEs); see Table 4-8 in the SDM. With VMX extended page
tables, the processor notices and fails the VM entry as soon as CR0.PG
is set to 1."
And thanks "Laszlo Ersek" <lersek@redhat.com> to validate the fix.

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
