Based on Ard's comment under "MdePkg: Base Memory Lib instance using
MMIO" ("I don't think we need this library"), this patch would be
unnecessary too.

(This applies to the
"BaseMemoryLib|MdePkg/Library/BaseMemoryLibMmio/BaseMemoryLibMmio.inf"
resolutions in the previous patch as well, apparently.)
