[edk2-devel] [PATCH V2 1/7] NetworkPkg/Defines: Make iSCSI disable as default

Sure. I would do it. I am thinking using Network.dsc.inc instead of others inc's combination. But there may be a question: the default Network.dsc.inc would only cover below build:
Components.IA32, Components.X64, Components.ARM, Components.AARCH64, Components.RISCV64
I am not sure if the above would match ArmVirt and Ovmf's requirements.

Thanks,
Zhichao
