> 
> Previous commit d786a17232:
> UefiCpuPkg/MpInitLib: Reduce the size when loading microcode patches
> 
> Removed the below assignments for the 'InitFlag' field of CPU_MP_DATA
> structure in function MpInitLibInitialize() when APs are waken up to do
> some initialize sync:
> 
> CpuMpData->InitFlag  = ApInitReconfig;
> ...
> CpuMpData->InitFlag = ApInitDone;
> 
> Under some cases (e.g. when variable OldCpuMpData is not NULL, which
> means
> function CollectProcessorCount() will not be called), this will left the
> 'InitFlag' field being uninitialized with a value of 0, which is a invalid
> value for the type of 'InitFlag' (AP_INIT_STATE).
> 
> It may potentially cause the WakeUpAP() function to run some unnecessary
> codes when the APs have been successfully waken up before:
> 
>   if (CpuMpData->WakeUpByInitSipiSipi ||
>       CpuMpData->InitFlag   != ApInitDone) {
>     ResetVectorRequired = TRUE;
>     AllocateResetVector (CpuMpData);
>     FillExchangeInfoData (CpuMpData);
>     SaveLocalApicTimerSetting (CpuMpData);
>   }
> 
> This commit will address the above-mentioned issue.

> Test done:
> * OS boot on a real platform with multi processors
