One of issue caused by enabling NULL pointer detection is that some PCI device OptionROM, binary drivers and binary OS boot loaders may have NULL pointer access bugs, which will prevent BIOS from booting and is almost impossible to fix. BIT7 of PCD PcdNullPointerDetectionPropertyMask is used as a workaround to indicate BIOS to disable NULL pointer detection right after event gEfiEndOfDxeEventGroupGuid, and then let boot continue.
