MdePkg: use CpuPause() in CpuDeadLoop()
...
CpuPause() might allow the CPU to go into a lower power state
state while we spin.
On X86, CpuPause() executes a PAUSE instruction which the Intel
and AMD specs describe as follows:
Intel:
"PAUSE: An additional function of the PAUSE instruction is to reduce
the power consumed by a processor while executing a spin loop. A
processor can execute a spin-wait loop extremely quickly, causing the
processor to consume a lot of power while it waits for the resource it
is spinning on to become available. Inserting a pause instruction in a
spin-wait loop greatly reduces the processor?s power consumption."
AMD:
"PAUSE: Improves the performance of spin loops, by providing a hint to
the processor that the current code is in a spin loop. The processor
may use this to optimize power consumption while in the spin loop.
Architecturally, this instruction behaves like a NOP instruction."
On RISC-V and ARM64, CpuPause() executes a NOP, which is no worse than
the tight loop we have.
